longshot - any dermatology experts?

For years now, I’ve had this intermittent problem with a couple of my toes. It’ll become itchy for about a week and go away almost as suddenly as it began. After the itching subsides, I’ll find that it’s crusted over along the first knuckle crease of the toe. About a week from that, it becomes very tough and scaly and I’m able to peel it off without any effort as if I’m peeling an orange.

I don’t know what it is and I’ve tried various ointments and powders for it including Cortisone, Gold-Bond (both in the goldenrod can and the green one), both of which have temporary cooling effects but the problem persists. I’ve also tried Lotrimin and number of Rx creams and ointments we have around the house hoping that a shot in the dark would hit the bull’s-eye.
