Dermatologist,  's  Response
hello mr moses. welcome to health care magic.
from the brief history it looks like you may have had scabetic infection leading to pompholyx.
please do get a good treatment for scabies from your nearest dermatologist,
please do check your groins and axilla region for any trace of fungal infection and if you are in the habit of wearing shoes please do inspect your web space between the 4th a nd 5 th toe.
thank you and wish you a speedy recovery.
