Question: I have redness on the tops of my toes as seen in the photos. Its been about a week and the redness has only progressed. First symptoms was itching, a little redness and pain. Now my symptoms are redness, pain, skin pulling back from several small toes at the base of toenail, what appears to have been blisters, and my toes have changed shape as though there was pressure pushing them together. My shoes don't feel like they are really tight but they do have rubber that comes over the toe box and as a cashier I am do a lot of squating so I am on my toes alot. I recently bought these shoes about a month and a half ago. I have problems with profuse sweating and the shoes do not allow them to breathe so I do know it doesn't not help the problem. I am 20 years old, 250lbs and female. I am not diabetic and do not have any other diseases other then hashimotos hypothyroidism which I take 224mg of synthroid for and Victoza for diabetes prevention.

My Mother has had eczema before and had gotten a topical ointment and she gave to me to use, it is Metrogel Topical 1% gel, do you think this will work.
