Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of red blotches on foot which are due to allergic reaction or body's response to external stimuli which can be a allergen. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to try to figure out what exactly causing red blotches in your case , give cold compresses to affected area to get rid of itching. You should take benadryl to suppress allergic reaction. You should touching or pricking blotches as it will exaggerate your symptoms. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may order blood tests and skin patch test to confirm diagnosis. You can start with proper course of steroids after complete prescription.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
