Around 10 days ago i felt inside between my big and 2nd toe was sore. Not itchy just sore. It had a red line.
A few days later there was white loose skin. Like when you get peely skin in summer etc.
Just left it. 3 days ago it split. Again not itchy. I thought maybe athlete's feet . I have tea tree to clean, a a spray and the cream im so paranoid.
But its not itchy however top of my foot is.
Im trying to keep it dry but due to bunion and toe trying to go over its staying moist.
I will contact gp tomorrow.

In case its athlete's foot. Im changing socks 4x a day although i never get smelly feet or sweat really. Boil wahsing them. Not wearing slippers just socks around the house.
Tea tree clean 2 x day.
Spray 2x day
Cream 1x day

Looks a bit like athletes foot / yeast infection - possibly not dried properly in between toes and it's caught hold. I've had it like that before - canasten cream sorted it out.

A pharmacist should be able to help - you can show them the pictures.

Looks like athlete's foot to me
Lamisil cream will sort it, make sure you dry between toes really well to stop it returning
No need to go to the GP

Athletes foot. The powder works better than the creams though.
