Unknown Condition

Post a new topicby Guest on Fri Aug 30, 2002 10:59 am


Hello,
My Husband and I have recently been on a 'round the world trip'. My Husband, who is 40 years old has noticed his feet are quite dry and they are scaly. He has cracked skin between his toes and he claims they are extremely itchy at night. No one else in the family suffers from this condition except one of my daughters occasionally experiences bouts of eczema Can anyone help?

Thankyou, Laurissa

It may be as simple as athlete's foot especially if he was wearing the same shoes all the time. It could be eczema as well but htis is less likely. He should see a podiatrist in order to be properly diagnosed and treated.
