Ever since I returned from Viet Nam I regularly get a red, stinging, itching spots between my toes that finally manifest in large water-filled bulbuous blisters that still sting and itch. The blisters finally break and slowly heal over a week with the stinging and itching. It does not respond to normal Athlete's Foot meds and does not look like athletes foot I had experienced prior. The bubble like blisters are the most dominant characteristic. If I can put a name to it, hopefully I can find a specific med to put on it. Many thanks

Where you in the military when you came back from Viet Nam?  If so, go to your closest VA Medical Center and they will take care of you.  If not, it's something you need to go to your doctor for, ASAP!

My feet do this as well.  So do my brothers.  I have tried lotions, pedicures, and fancy foot creams but nothing works.  My doctor has never said that he thinks there is anything wrong.  I would not worry.  But it is pretty gross huh?

it's hard to say without a picture.  \n\nMy aunt just experienced the same sounding rash in the same location.  She had it for almost 3 weeks and then went to the doctor.  She was given some cream and an antiobiotic.  It has dissapeared in the past couple days.\n\nGood luck, and see your doctor.

I get exactly the same thing! The toe next to the big one seises up with cramp and crosses underneath. I cant stop it, and it really hurts doesnt it! None of my friends get it, is it just us? There is this good site which expains a bit about it, dont worry tho, you are not alone!

Sometimes bug bites are just persistent.  It also depends on your allergies/immune system.  Basically, some things just irritate some people more than others.  Even different places on our bodies react differently (like places where you tend to move more tend to get more irritated).  Recently, I stumbled upon some red ants while wearing flip-flops.  I've been bit before by red ants, but I have never reacted like this.  I got three bites on the top of my foot. . . this was before halloween and they're STILL itching like crazy every now and then.  \n\nThe best thing I have found to do is to buy an antihistamine cream to put on them when they itch.  If you have been taking an antihistamine like Benadryl, the cream is nice because it doesn't make you sleepy!  The antihistamine keeps your body from "overreacting" to stuff, which is why it is often used for allergies.  When you use it for the bites, they will itch less and can heal quicker because itching them makes the reaction worse (so DON'T itch them!!!).  I would do that until they go away completely.  If they begin to get bigger (other than just the slight swelling) and the redness/swelling starts to spread out, you should consider re-visting your doctor so they can give you a prescription to better treat them.\n\nI hope this helps!!

It sounds infected to me.  Burn a needle on the stove until it glows red, and jab the needle into the bump.  You will feel a little pain.  There may me a small wood splinter embedded in your toe, and you may need someone to remove it with the needle.\n\nAfter that, soak a cotton ball into "hydrogen peroxide" the stuff you buy at the pharmacy in the brown bottle, and place it on the bump.  If the bump starts to foam white, you have a skin infection.  You will have to soak your toe with hydrogen peroxide for a week, or until the soreness go's away.

I have this sometimes and it was diagnosed as Dishydrosis. It is usually an inherited condition and can pop up during times of high stress or when you are run-down. I usually use some polysporin on the blisters once they pop to keep the area moisturized and germ-free.

it sounds like a form of eczema.  go get some hydrocortizone cream from the pharmacy (they sell it over the counter).  it should help it clear up.  if it doesnt go away from that, you may need a stronger dose, which you can only get to a doctor.  also, since there are little heads in it, i would suggest something with a little sulfur in it.  that will help your body learn to fight it. \nbut, it may just be an allergic reaction to the soap you are using.  stop using the soap you have, and if that doesnt work, try the above suggestions.  if you have any more questions, feel free to IM or message me.  good luck

It's the flesh-eating virus.  Get your leg amputated immediately!  J/K  I get little patches of the same thing on occasion just under my armpits.  I just apply a little Vaseline cream, and it clears up in a day or two.  No pain, no itching or irration.  Just a little strange.

It could be a fungal infection and since it appears inflamed and may be associated with some oozing, it may be mistaken as an eczematous eruption.  Try CLOTRIMAZOLE or MICONAZOLE ointment three times daily for the next 21 days as that is the time required for the skin to renew itself.  Although you surely would be much better within next 24 hours after starting this treatment, you will have to continue this application for the next 21 days so as to be free from recurrence.\n\nCheck your feet, especially between your toes.  If you have some redness and peeling of skin, it may be a fungus infection and you must treat it in similar fashion.  Remember to put on socks before you put on your undies as the infection from your feet may be transmitted through the undies yet again to your groin or the external genitalia, and surely you wont want it that way.   Get your partner examined by a doctor and maybe it was through your partner that you got this infection.  In that case your partner would also require the same treatment, otherwise recurrence is bound to happen.  Good luck.   You are right, avoid Vaseline.

Lamisil AT, Micatin, Lotrimin AF, Tinactin,\nAftate, Zeasorb-AF are all athlete's foot remedies available at the drug store that are effective.\n\nHome remedies include soaking your feet in Listerine, or using Noxzema, both of which contain camphor, menthol and eucalyptus. These herbal extracts seem to have antifungal properties, but they may also have an impact on itch or pain receptors

I understand your concern, and I must say, it is very serious and legitimate.\n\nThe best cream for that sort of thing (I find) is Polysporin.  I use it for practically everything.  Hell, it healed my earring, lip rings, acne, hemmoroids, severed toe, and even cured my lethargy!  Definitely use Polysporin, and I hope that nasty blister goes away.\n\nSlan leat.

It very much sounds like tinea pedis, or athlete's foot.  Nonprescription antifungals usually are used first. These include terbinafine (Lamisil AT), miconazole (Micatin), clotrimazole (Lotrimin AF), and tolnaftate (Tinactin, Tinaderm). \nPrescription antifungals are used if nonprescription medications are not successful or if you have a severe infection. These include naftifine (Naftin), butenafine (Mentax), miconazole (Monistat Derm), and clotrimazole (Lotrimin). Griseofulvin is a prescription medication that slows the growth of fungi. It is used to treat athlete's foot. If over the counter medication does not make it improve, please see your doctor.

Sounds like Athlete's Foot for sure.  There are so many creams out there for it.  Go to the medicine isle for an anti-fungal cream for Athlete's Foot. Lamisil is a good one.  Athlete's Foot can be picked up so easily from sharing showers and floors with another person who has it.  Always avoid going barefoot in public places like a locker room, gym or dressing room.

When I was fitted for new walking/running shoes and had blisters the shoe guy told me I was wearing my socks too thick and didn't have the correct support.  He told me to put desitin cream or any baby rash cream on the blisters to keep the moisture away. \n It worked ASAP!

Hmmm...\n\nI still think they are hives.  A minor case may only stay around for a day or two.  Hard to tell, but if they really start bothering you, go to a free clinic, to be safe.\nYour health is more important than money.\n\n Another possibility is ringworm ( a fungus), but I think it stays for a while without medicine.\n\nHere is another idea.  Go to your nearest pharmacy the next time you break out.  Then ask the pharmacist what he thinks you can put on it.  He/she might recognize the rash and be able to help you...\n\nGood luck!  Let me know ok?
