2) Erosive type: manifested as maceration and whitishness of the stratum corneum of the local epidermis. Due to the continuous rubbing and rubbing of the epidermis when walking, the bright red erosive surface is exposed; In severe cases, the gap between the toes, the junction between the abdomen and the soles of the feet** can be involved, and the itching is intense, mostly between the toes.

Common in people with excessive sweating.
