Brief Answer:
Observe them for now!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I have reviewed your information and the image provide fully. These bumps are very non specific and do not suggest a unique diagnosis at this time. I will recommend that you monitor only for now and do nothing as you have no other symptoms. Should something else happen like new symptoms or increase in the number, please update me. I strongly feel that it would go away all by itself an there is no need for treatment at this time.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

These little red bumps have been there for 2 weeks or more so I do not know what you would like me to do about it

Brief Answer:
They pose no threat/discomfort, let's wait and see

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

There is no need going aggressive on this at this time. They pose no threat or discomfort and I will suggest that you allow them to be. If new worries come up, then we would be digging deeper but I do not just feel like that would be the best of options at this time. If you however want testing to be done at this time, let me know and I will recommend tests that can be done but am not sure they would be any helpful at this stage.

I hope this helps. I wish you well and always available to address your concerns.

They itch and do cause a little discomfort when I wear shoes and socks I tried to pop than and clear liquid come out of some of them but some will not pop I I also have foot odor that has increased since this problem has started but I do not think that is the main cause so I do not believe that is is a fungal infection but there has to be some type of treatment because they have been there for 2 weeks or more

Brief Answer:
Try beclomethasone cream!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Because this has been there for the past 2weeks an certain you would like to see something done, I will like you to try the above cream which contains steroid. This would be able to address the itches and fight this rash. Like I mentioned, it is very non specific but can be suggestive of an allergy.

Let me know when you get the drug and and update me a week after treatment for evaluation and more information.

I hope this helps. Let me know if this makes a sensible plan to you.
Cheers!
