Why do I have red bumps on the bottom of my feet?

Answer by  rbiales (3441)

Something is waking up your immune system and it is working to heal you. This could be an infection such as athlete's foot, a small injury you did not notice such as a glass splinter, or an allergic reaction to the fabric or detergent you use.

A virus, bacterial infection or parasite could cause red bumps on the soles of the feet. They should be checked by a healthcare professional.

A person can get red bumps on the bottom of their feet if their skin is irritated in some way. If a person's skin is exposed to extreme heat or cold, or if the skin is exposed to substances that its allergic to, these bumps can occur.

Red spots could be caused by a new pair of shoes causing blisters. If the red spots do not disappear shortly a podiatrist should be considered.
