Weird rash on foot

It started out I thought it was athletes foot, but I don't t think it's that. It started spreading along the top of my foot by my toes. Now it is spreading upthe top of my foot twoard my leg. When I bend my foot it is painful. Everywhere the rash is, is painful like it is very bruised. Hurts to the touch hurts to walk. Please help what could it be?

Hi,

This could be nerve-related or an infection. It would be best to have this evaluated further by your doctor for proper management. Direct physical examination and some tests may be done to help with the diagnosis. Keep the area clean and dry and rest the affected foot. Take care and keep us posted.
