What Causes Peeling Skin And Reddish Dots Under The Feet Of A Teenager?

My daughter is 13 yes of age and she has reddish dots under her feet and a severe peeling. She says its not itching nor do it hurt. She a pretty healthy kid, plays basketball. Should I be concern about this or is it something that will eventually pass.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Peeling of skin with red dots in a teenager looks like allergic reaction, might be associated with fungal infection.
Kindly apply mousturizer cream everyday at bedtime. Apply cream containing Clotrimazole with betamethazone cream twice daily on the skin leasions after cleaning and drying.
Let her take Vitamin E, Biotin and zinc containing capsules everyday for a month.
The lesions should subside by about two weeks.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
