What Causes Blister Kind Of Spots On Foot With Itching?

Please tell me what these are... About 6 months ago I bought new shoes an ended up with a foot fungus I treated an it went an I continued with treatment for a few months. Everything cleared an I was fine for 2 months. Then I started getting a lot of dry skin on my right foot. An noticed a blister type form of spots on the side of my foot I them popped them an drained the fluid as it was becoming itchy and irritating. Now the spots have spread to understand my foot an have a orange glow on them. I cut into my foot an removed a few layers of skin at the side to get rid of it I dont know how to attach a picture so I can t send one but I need these to go asap. An I don t want it spreading to my 1 year old son.

First of all, you need to get a simple test of skin scrapings for fungus done. The test is painless and is easily done in the doctors office. If it is positive for fungus take appropriate treatment for the prescribed period and your problem will be over. Also take care to ventilate your feet and use absorbent socks so that humidity does not develop and the fungal infection does not recur. If there is associated involvement of nails then you might need medication for a longer period till the nails have been cured of infection.
