Is it normal that my toes are wrinkly?

Before I tell you anything, I'd like you to keep in mind that I am a 26-year-old, black woman. So, lately, I've been noticing that my toenails are yellowing and grow in weird shapes, and my skin is turning white and wrinkly. I am quite a smellyfoot, so could it be a bacterial infection? I do not believe in cleaning my hands and feet for spiritual reasons. I am also lactose intolerant, and a diabetic, so could my diet play a role in this? I do admit to sneaking out of bed and eating candy in the middle of the night. This is because my boyfriend cares about my health and is strict about my diet. Please help, and tell me if this is normal because it is very worrying!

    Obviously this is not normal. I should know, I'm Captain Obvious! Basically you do indeed have an infection. You need to see a doctor about that. The human body is not supposed to do that at all. You also need to stop not believing in not washing your and feet. It's not healthy either. If your boyfriend is worried about your health, he's worried for a good reason. The kind of behavior you are doing is could be lethal for a diabetic. The infection is could also be lethal if it gets worse. If it does get lethal, you may need your legs amputated. The behavior you are exhibiting and the infection could lead to an early death. No mentally or physically healthy person wants to die an early death at all, this is very bad.

    No, it's not normal. Type in "yellow toe nails" on your browser and several informative sites wil appear.
