Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You are probably having contact dermatitis to leather chappals. You can apply betamethsone ointment to the foot for symptomatic relief. If there is itching you can take pheneramine or hydroxyzine. You can use footwear made of canvas type material whch has got lesser chances for such symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
