Maybe ringworm, which is a fungi. Usually caught from swimming baths! Go to chemist buy a tube of Daktarin. Use daily, it will go in a week but continue for one more week. Good luck. Maybe wear socks for a couple of weeks.

It might be chlorine allergy. Please check it. Go for an allergy test.

I suppose, this is perhaps swimmer's itch, aka cercarial dermatitis. This occurs due to water contamination. Apply cool compress, use calamine or any anti-itch lotion. you can take a bath with baking soda. And if the problem gets worse, consult an immunologist.
