Hard to tell if it's a new spot or an old spot of shell rot. It might have always been there, but the top part just now fell off. At any rate, scrub it good with some betadyne. Allow it to dry, then paint it with some athlete's foot cream.

Would SLIVADENE CREAM 1% and or vita shell work? Should I treat my other tort just in case? I feel AWFUL
