Itching, Burning Sensation At The Sole Of The Feet. Suspected Eczema Or Psoriasis. Prescribed Ointment. Symptoms Persist.
Hi I have little area at the sole of my left foot only, where it gets really itchy and kind of burning sensation. It does have a little tiny red dots. there were couple of clear spots to begin with and then they turned red and now drying. My doctor thinks it could be eczema or posraisis and gave me betamethasone valerate 1 mg to apply twice a day. it has helped in treating couple of spots to dry but hasnt helped with itching and burning sesation at all
