Dermatologist 's  Response
hi Andrew
1. your concern may be tinea pedis, you require physical examination for confirmation of diagnosis.
2. don't use micospec BV cream, it contains mild medicated steroid along with low potent antifungal, it may not help you.
3. instead you can try tebicip spray, twice daily on dry skin, it's a topical antifungal spray.
4. take opinion from another dermatologist near by you.
this will help you.
