Hi,
It seems that you might be having Scabies infection in between toes and now there is secondary bacterial infection.
Clean the part with antiseptic lotion and apply antibiotic cream.
If require go for one antibiotic medicine course for 3-5 days.
Afterwards consult your doctor and get examined for having scabies.
Ok and take care.
