Hard to say: One look from your doctor could help a lot in figuring out what is going on. Itchy white patches, and "lumps" on heels might be a corn, or a type of athlete's foot (tinea pedis), or even less common condition known as dyshydrotic eczema.

Bump: If she is walking, she may have stepped on something and there is a foreign body. Keep it clean and gently pumice the area and if persists, have it seen with imaging such as ultrasound. All the best.
