Fungus: Fungus on the skin is often associated with skin lesions such as vesicles or rash or red bumps and are very itchy. What may have happened is after scratching the ankle lesion you scratched your toes. The ankle lesion darkened probably from scratching it so much that it bled and formed a dark scab over it. Try over the counter Lamisil (terbinafine) cream. If it doesn't help, see a podiatrist for prescribed meds.
