Athlete's foot/tinea pedis

2022-07-13 12:18:47
Dear Sir/Ma'am, Suddenly for a couple of weeks I feel tremendous itching between two toes. I found the infected area has whitened and while itching small pieces of skin coming out. Is it a fungal infection? What medication do you suggest, Although I have been applying antiseptic creams and liquid after bath. Regards, Subir Dutta
