What Could Be The Little Blister With A Painful Lump On The Toe That Oozes Clear Liquid When Popped ?

In between toe 3 but on toe 4 I have a little blister, that has a very painful pump. I popped it and little clear liquid came out. It been here like a week or so. What is it? I thought maybe because I was wearing flats that where to small so I got a corn on my toe but I am not a doctor so help?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

After reading your query it appears to be due to Fungal infection of the area which is quite common due to heat and humidity. Fungal infection of the skin is quite common due to infection and hygiene as well as most commonly due to diabetes. To prevent the further spread maintain good hygiene wash it two times properly. Stay away from hot and humid climate.

If I were your dermatologist then would have prescirbed clotrimazole cream or terbinafine cream over the affected areas under medical supervision. I suggest you to take antifungal tablet by mouth such as fluconazole 150 mg alternate days for 15 days.

It is not a corn as in corn there is no possibility of blister or related appearance.

Take care.
