Can ReliOn® Daily Skin Therapy be used between the toes?
Because people with diabetes sweat more and are prone to fungal infections, podiatrists (foot doctors) instruct patients to rub cream from the heel toward the toes and avoid putting cream between the toes.

However, because ReliOn® Daily Skin Therapy absorbs quickly and contains antimicrobial ingredients, it is one of the few products that can be used around the toe area to help prevent fungal infections.
