What is the drug treatment for blisters of tinea pedis

Vesicular tinea pedis is relatively common in dermatology. The main symptoms are blisters on the hands and feet in summer and cracking of the skin in winter. Some patients also experience redness, peeling and itching between the toes. The treatment of vesicular tinea pedis mainly adopts external medication and oral Chinese medicine. It should be noted that vesicular tinea pedis is usually stubborn, so you must persist in taking the medication and not stop when you don't see improvement. Let's take a closer look at the drug treatment methods for tinea pedis and blister.

Vesicular tinea pedis is a very common clinical skin tinea disease occurring on the hands or feet. It is caused by pathogenic filamentous fungal infection and is more common in tinea pedis than in tinea manuum. Clinically, it can be divided into several types, including keratinizing type, vesicular type, papulosquamous type, intertriginous type and tinea corporis type, and may also appear in combination. This disease has a tendency to be contagious, and its occurrence is closely related to close contact with the patient's hands and feet or items, such as slippers, bathtubs, and foot cloths. Tinea manuum is often transmitted from the patient's own tinea pedis.
