Podiatrists treat all foot and ankle conditions. Foot fungus is a common condition we see on a regular basis. I recommend you make an appointment with a foot and ankle surgeon (podiatrist) to discuss if this is the correct diagnosis and the appropriate treatment options

Thank you for your inquiry,
Absolutely, a podiatrist can assist. You may also be able to talk to your local pharmacist who can help you select appropriate over the counter treatments. Make sure you keep your feet dry, especially after a shower or bath; use a separate towel for the feet; change socks if they become damp or after exercise. Remember to avoid wearing the same pair of shoes two days in a row. If the foot becomes red or warm or painful, it may suggest you have an infection. See your doctor urgently.
I hope this has been of assistance.
