The pustular-vesicular type predominantly presents with small pustules and vesicles, which may spread or cluster, have thick walls, clear fluid in the vesicles, and a ring-like scaling when the vesicles dry up; the mucoid-macerative type usually occurs between the fourth and fifth toes, often accompanied by excessive sweating of the foot, with the skin between the toes becoming macerated and white; the hyperkeratotic type, which primarily presents as thickened, rough, dry, peeling, and cracked skin. Generally, topical antifungal agents (such as Ketoconazole cream, Sulfconazole cream, Terbinafine cream etc.) can be used externally.
