Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi


You seem to have developed either an eczematous skin rash or a fungal infection over the toes .
Eczematous rash over this area can present with red itchy lesions over both feet and needs to be treated with topical steroids .
Fungsl rash needs treatment with topical and oral antifungals.
