I have a bad case of athlete's foot that i have received conventional treatment for. now i think it has spread to one of my fingers.

Possible: What medication were you given? More than likely, it is difficult to spread to your fingers....Fungal infections Need warm, dark, moist environments to grow and live. The hands are not a good breeding ground. You possibly could have a bacterial infection which is possible or it may not be related. Try using Lamasil cream OTC for 2 weeks and see if that helps. If it gets worse, see your PCP.
