Why are my heels red?

Red heels may be caused by allergic dermatitis or eczema. In addition, the possibility of friction from shoes cannot be ruled out. It can usually be improved through medication.

1. Shoe friction: Wearing shoes that are too wide in daily life may cause friction between the heels and the shoes while walking, which may cause local skin damage and skin redness. In severe cases, pain may occur. Generally, the improvement can be achieved by changing shoes, and attention should also be paid to local hygiene care.

2. Eczema: This is a relatively common skin disease. During the onset period, it usually causes redness, swelling, pain, and even itching of the skin. In severe cases, it may cause skin erosion. Generally, you need to cooperate with the doctor to use antibiotics for treatment, which can improve the inflammatory infection as soon as possible and is also beneficial to the recovery of the skin.

3. Allergic dermatitis: Allergic rhinitis is mainly caused by contact with allergic substances, such as newly replaced shoes or socks, which can cause local allergies. You need to cooperate with the doctor to use anti-allergic drugs, and you also need to do testing for allergens.

During the recovery period, be sure to wear loose or breathable shoes and socks to keep your skin dry and breathable.
