Red Bumps On Foot, Curvy Red Line. What Is It?

I have 2 large red bumps and a cluster of 5 smaller bumps nearby the larger 2 on the right side of my left foot . On the sole of the same foot is a curved red line. All of it is extremely itchy. ( don t see a special selection for podiatry ) This started as itching on the side of my foot and over the course of two days became much more prevalent. The bumps were pulsing red/light red. That has since stopped.
