General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

In my opinion the symptom seem to be related to a fungal infection. I would suggest using anti fungal oral medication. I also suggest using anti fungal creams for local treatment. You should wash and dry the feet frequently.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
