If your feet are itchy and red, try using alternate applications of aloe vera gel and calendula.

If you are prone to infection, make a blend of equal parts of aloe vera liquid and calendula, Echinacea, and goldenseal extracts. Rub the mixture well into the affected area. This liquid mixture is a good antifungal, relieves itching, and is very soothing.

Rub a washcloth dipped in apple-cider vinegar briskly between your toes to remove the soggy skin and scales. It feels like scratching and relieves the itch. A soak in warm water with a liberal amount of apple cider vinegar added also helps.

Cat's claw enhances the immune response and has antifungal properties. Take 500 milligrams of standardized extract three times a day until the condition resolves.

Note: Do not use cat's claw if you are pregnant or nursing, or if you are an organ transplant recipient. Use it with caution if you are taking an anticoagulant.

Echinacea, goldenseal, oat straw, and yellow dock are antifungal, antibacterial, and have a soothing effect on the skin. Take one cup of tea brewed with the blended herbs, or 1,000 milligrams of the combined extracts three times a day for two weeks.

Garlic is a powerful fungicide. Cut a few silvers of raw garlic and put them in your socks, or dust your shoes with garlic-based foot powder. The medicinal properties are absorbed through the skin.

Dust between your toes with an absorbent powder, such as green clyay, to help keep these problem areas dry.
