Hi,
I am having a terrible itch in some fingers of my toes.It's the winter where i live & fairly cold.The itch appears after i take my walk in the evenings. Could the itch be due to my skin drying up excessively? As it is My skin type is dry.

Could u help me pls?

Thanx.

Ummm...what exactly is a "toe finger"? LOL
I'm assuming you are referring to your toes. If that is the case, you could be experiencing dry skin in which a good moisturizer will help. OR it could be athletes foot. If you are wearing socks during your walk, and your feet are sweating, you could be trapping in the moisture which is a breeding ground for the fungus. If this is the case there are powders for the treatment. If nothing seems to relieve the itching, you may want to discuss this with a dermatologist.

Is the skin of your feet flaking or skaling off? Is it rough and raw and sore between your toes? Here is a site that discusses it.

If you simply have dry skin, wash your feet thoroughly with cool water.. do not use hot as that dries out your skin worse. Immediately after your shower, use a moisturizing lotion (one of the better ones I've found at Walmart is rather expensive, but works beautifully is called Eucerine Cream. It is a very thick cream of which you use only a little. There is also a Eucerine Lotion which dispenses with a little easier because it is a thinner lotion.)

If you have a parent or a spouse willing to help you out, you could wash your body with a cool shower, not hot as I said it dries your skin out worse, and get a body rub-down with the cream or lotion.

Then, each day, at the end of the night pamper your feet with the wash, pat dry, lotion ritual. They work hard, so give them a little TLC.
