I have used lotrimin (the cream for athletes foot it is an antifungal) .. i put a fleece liner in my pockets and had not issues

.. just got some fleece from fabric store .. put this on 2-3 x a day for 10 days per pedi .. but after it started to clear up i used my diaper cream from NE .. called Better Butt(er) Cream it has GSE in it and works AWESOME !!

In the wash I did 1/4 c bleach .. then after that wash all other washes i add 5-10 drops GSE .. and about 1 c vinegar in my rinse and sun them if i can ..

Wipes water : I add about 3-5 drops of GSE to 2 cups water .. and a little TTO and about 1 tsp vinegar ..

this site has another recipe for it too :

if it does not look like that i would take her to pedi and get it diagnosed .. it could be reaction to detergent .. or something else

yeah it looks all res with little white bumps in it. I have been looking at pictures and i am sure that is it. I just wanted to know if i should be using monistat on it?
