Difference between eczema and athletes foot? between 2 of my toes is itchy and scaly skin, i've itched so much the skin is raw and bleeding a little

Itching: can be a symptom in both athletes feet and eczema. Most Podiatrists can tell the difference on first glance, however if there is a question about it a skin biopsy can be taken. Most important is to get an accurate diagnosis or the proper treatment to prevent spreading and to prevent infection.
