According to the major symptom you described (solid white growth between toes with a hole in the middle) you might be experiencing a skin ulcer accompanied with a fungal infection. One of the complications in diabetes is the disturbed circulation throughout the body due to aggravated atherosclerosis. The minor blood vessels in: kidneys, heart muscles, brain and feet are most affected. The decreased circulation leads to lack of local immune responses, which accompanied with the moisture provides excellent conditions for a fungal infection to develop. However, many other conditions can cause these symptoms and a visit to a dermatologist might help in solving the problems described above.
