I'm afraid the red patches sound like you have an allergic reaction. Also acidity cannot be balanced by consumption of 'alkaline' foods.

Next Steps

Please visit a general physician to evaluate all the aspects you have mentioned. He may further recommend a visit to a specialist like dermatologist/gastroenterologist if necessary.
