You may be having a superficial bacterial infection of the skin called pitted keratolysis. A cream or ointment containing fusidic acid should help you. Alternately Whitfield ointment if available in medical stores can be used. You will need to use it for about 15 days. In case it is due to some other problem like psoriasis or eczema the treatment will differ. Please visit a dermatologist to examine you and make a diagnosis. Warm regards. Dr. Rajdeep Mysore.
