I've been struggling with a fungal infection for about a month now and have tried four different lotions like Ringguard, Itchguard, Clostargm, and Funzimx, but nothing seems to be working. Can you suggest what else I might do or use to finally get rid of this issue? I'm really unsure about what step to take next and would appreciate any advice.

I've had this light black vertical stripe on my toe for about five years now. I always thought it was from my shoes, but then I read something online about it potentially being a sign of skin cancer. It's got me feeling really anxious. I havent had any pain or bleeding from it, but Id like to know if I should be concerned. What do you think it could be?

Don't worry cancer developing over toe fingers is not usual and your history says it could be stress and pressure induced pigmentation, visit Dermatologist for evaluation if its bothering you.
