What Causes Red And Sore Feet?

My seven year old developed red, sore feet yesterday after a field day event (2-3 hours while soaking wet including shoes) and then changed in the girls room without her shoes on. No fever, hands are not red or sore, just her feet. Any ideas as to what this could be?

Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi....It could be due to the sodden shoes worn by her for a prolonged period. It depends on what type of water she had waded too.
Just ask her not to wear shoes or socks for another 24-48 hours and she will be fine.
