Hi,
from history it seems that there might be having fungal infection in between toes called athlete's foot. and now due to itching there might be having secondary bacterial infection producing swelling and blister.
Clean dry between toes and apply anti-fungal cream.
Keep spaces between toes dry and clean.
Avoid perspiration.
Clean dry after removing socks or it is better to wear socks for some time.
Another possibility of having scabies should be ruled out.
Ok and take care.
