I have suffered with skin issues on my right foot for years (possibly over a decade, I lost track) my skin would crack and flake. Pedicures were not something I could do. My dermatologist had given me an assortment of lotions and nothing ever completely cleared it up. After my daughters beach wedding I could hardly walk because the skin was cracked so badly. I found a new dermatologist who said I had ringworm (how'd that happen) he prescribed anti fungals and lotion; wow it's gone! I went and had a pedicure for the first time in years. As the summer wore on; guess what? It came back, oh no! Back to the dermatologist for another round. The Dr's best guess was that it was something in the soil in my garden. No more sandals while doing yard work. It's been gone for a few months and I've been using the Lotrimin instead of the prescription stuff because it helps soften the skin and makes it normal again. I'll always have a tube of this in the house just to make sure I don't reinfect myself. Tried some homeopathic stuff, yuck read my review on that ;)

I used this product for a month and the problem is still there. It helped with the itching though. Yesterday my doctor gave me a prescription cream to get rid of the problem.

This was only a temporary soother for me. I have had prescription creams for this before which work very quickly to HEAL the problem while this cream simply masks some of the symptoms such as itching. This is my first try with an over-the-counter cream so I was optimistic and gave the cream ample time (9 days) to work but alas it did not. So I recommend using this only as an interim fix while waiting for the prescription as it was mildly helpful to make the itchy feeling go away but sadly did not ultimately heal the rash.
