I HAVE BEEN WEARING CLOSED LEATHER SHOES ALMOST EVERYDAY AND MY SKIN ON THE OUTER SIDE OF MY BIG LEFT TOE HAS BECOME EXTREMELY DRY ,ITCHY , FLAKY AND THIN. I HAVE APPLIED MANY ANTI FUNGAL CREAMS BUT THERE IS NO IMPROVEMENT. MY SKIN AROUND THE TOE DRIES UP VERY QUICKLY AND SOMETIMES ITCH. WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT THIS? I ALSO SEEM TO HAVE HAMMERTOE ONLY ON THIS LEG.

Hello Mrs. R.,
Wearing closed shoes daily, especially in the harsh winter months, can hinder the skin from "breathing" properly. When little air time is provided the skin, and given the closeness of the enclosed shoes and socks, dry skin can form with deep cracks leaving room for bacterial or fungal infection. Here is what I highly recommend for your treatment:
1) Wash the affected area with our hypo-allergenic and gentle body wash which contains absolutely no chemicals or ingredients that can be toxic to the skin. Our FACE & BODY WASH will begin the repair process and cleanse the foot of environmental debris and bacteria.
3) Next, apply our DOUBLE STRENGTH THERACREAM to the entire toe area to unpack dry, hardened cells 7 layers deep as well as to add necessary moisture to your skin. This fast acting cream will help restore optimal balance as well as provide an anti bacterial, anti microbial and anti fungal protection. This "double the strength" formula was made for the thicker skin on the feet and contains plenty of vitamins and nutrients to fortify and protect your skin.
