    I get this, but in my feet. Just have to rub the bottom of my foot on something and hope for the best. Suuuuucks.

      Do you ever have to just like smack the part against something? Sometimes thats the only way to get relief, like if its on the top of the foot

        Luckily haven’t had it on the top of the foot, but I’ve banged the bottom of my foot on stuff to try to itch it. Deep in the foot itch and unfortunately the stuff I do never helps for very long.

      If they’re red but otherwise normal, you probably have athlete’s foot. Especially likely if your toenails are yellow or anything like that. If they’re inflamed and dry, you probably have eczema/psoriasis. Prescription steroids clear it up really fast.
