My 7 y/o son says he itches in between his toes. What could cause this?

I've tried using hydrocortisone cream and Gold Bond itch cream. I've even rubbed inbetween his toes until he should be raw.but he still says it itches. There is NO rash and no redness. And there is no consistency to the itch. He complained for an hour last night for the first time in probably 2 months!! But when he complains HE COMPLAINS like it is driving him crazy! I don't know what to do when this happens. Any input? Could this be athlete's foot? Does athlete's foot go away on it's own? Any advice would be welcome, he was really restless last night.My 7 y/o son says he itches in between his toes. What could cause this?
It does sound like athlete's foot. Try an anti-fungal with soothing action. Actually, go to the pharmacy that you usually go to and ask the pharmacist what he/she suggests for someone of his age (some have age restrictions). Athlete's foot can clear up on it's own. There is usually skin peeling, sometimes little cuts (caused by itching) , and it's usually red. Use the cream and change his socks often to keep his feet dry (before school, after school, before bed)
Rub his feet on a high pile carpet.
Sounds like athlete's foot. It doesn't usually go away on its own because it is caused by fungi. Buy some Lotrimin powder at the store and follow the directions. If that doesn't work, see a doctor.
In the mean time, make sure he is changing his socks and bathing everyday. Make sure his feet are dry before he puts on socks and shoes. Make him wear well ventilated shoes, also.
if you get your son sneakers with air holes .that would help his feet get air so his feet don't sweat
Sounds like you need some tough actin tinactin
*insert john madden laugh here*
it could be a minor fungus that is common and will go away in a matter of days. I get it when my feet sweat.
