Red Dots on Feet that itch

(2 discussions)

I have these tiny little red dots on my feet that itch terribly. They were initially only on my toes, but now have spread to all over my feet, and in the creases of my fingers. What is this? I have been to 6 doctors, and no one knows. I am frustated, because I have tried all kinds of treatments and nothing helps. And my feet look dirty from a distance and don’t like wearing sandals because of it. What can I do?

    You didn’t say what type of doctor you saw. Did anyone take a scraping and look at it under a microscope? Were you treated for a fungal, bacterial, or parasitic infection?

    Sounds like a parasite- I’m amazed your 6 doctors don’t know how to use a microscope. Stop scratching them- you’re probably inadvertantly spreading it. (Which would explain why it’s now on your hands)No- I’m not a doc, just a guy that’s seen a lot in physical therapy.
