Hi red itchy soles and red chin indicates it is acute urticaria.bruise on the ankle can be infection.
Treat the condition with atarax 25 mg at night.alaspan in the morning .antibiotic twice daily and application of t bact ointment over the briuse .calamine over the chin and foot.
Rule out fungal infection.if no response use oral steriods
