Hi,
It seems that there might be having supper added bacterial infection giving this problem.
Go for one antibiotic medicine course for 3-5 days.
Apply triple action cream.
After finishing antibiotic medicine go for one oral anti-fungal medicine course like Flucanozole 150 mg once in a week for 4-6 weeks.
Keep inter digital spaces clean and dry.
Avoid wearing socks and shoes for some time.
Ok and take care.
