Fungal infection: It's possible that you have a fungal infection between your toes. Some otc powders and creams are not strong enough to clear it up. Fungus growsina most, dark, and warm environment, so avoid nylons, and other synthetic blend socks. Cotton and wool are better. Seek medical care for a professional consultation and prescription.

Determine the : Cause. See a podiatrist or dermatologist. Let them figure out if you have a fungus, a bacteria etc. Sometimes, otc meds are not strong enough. I.E. You may need an oral preparation etc. Or possibly, you may have a sweaty foot for example, so although your applying an antifungal agent you still may need to control the sweating.

Acute athlete's foot: The first thing that comes to mind is that this is one of the presentations of acute athlete's foot. Use drying soaks (epsom salts or dilute vinegar) and a topical antifungal... I prefer patients use lotrimin ultra or Lamisil (terbinafine) cream. You can use certain-dry pads or solutions to decrease perspiration. If this doesn't work, see a podiatrist and be sure to inform them of what you have tried already.
