Brief Answer:
Use clotrimazole

Detailed Answer:
Hello Thanks for the query.
Sometimes athlete's foot presents with blisters.
I treat such cases with a topical antifungal cream like clotrimazole to be applied twice daily for a month.
It is safe and effective and usually available over the counter.
You can try this.
Soaking feet in saline water is a good way to get relief from blisters.
You can continue with that.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
