If she wears the socks and shoes for long periods of time it could be bacteria from the sweating,so she should remove the shoes/socks  as soon as she can and wash and dry and powder her feet, foot powder in all stores ..High sugar levels and diabetes can also cause symptoms..

Hi tommwanza, did your daughter get relief from her itchy feet? I am experiencing similar symptoms and was wondering if she was diagnosed with anything and what treatment was recommended?

she could be suffering from dematites or exma. you should see a dematolagist(skin doctor) or your doctor to se if it could be an infection. good luck also leave the window in her bedroom open to make her feel more cool.
