I have one foot that is very dry, itchy. Some times i end up peeling my skin and it starts to bleed, sometimes i peel a bump or two that have clear like subtance that comes out. I also have itchy toes which i was told it was chiggers, not sure if the chiggers clear or itchness is part of what i have on the bottom of my foot. The strange part is i have it bad on one side of my foot and the other side is just my toes.
Hello and welcome to ChatDoctor Chat Doctor. I would ask you get a KOH wet mount from the scale, for a confirmatory diagnosis. If KOH wet mount shows fungal elements, then you could apply a topical OTC antifungal cream e.g. clotrimazole cream, twice daily for 4-6 weeks. An oral antifungal e.g. fluconazole 150 mg once weekly for 4-6 weeks is also advisable for a confirmed fungal infection. An OTC antihistamine e, g cetirizine 10 mg once daily would help you in providing symptomatic relief from itching. Regards
