What Is The Cause And Treatment For Swollen And Red Toes?
Hi Two weeks ago my third and fourth toe started to itch and started to swell up. I looked for a mosquito bite but couldn t find one. The itch has been happening for these weeks and only recently have I noticed the my toes have become very swollen and red. What is it?
The symptoms seem to be related to a fungal infection. I suggest to use an anti-fungal cream for local application such as Clotrimazole cream. I also suggest to use an anti histamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg to relieve the itching.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
