Without seeing: It, I would recommend you don't scratch it and apply antifungal medication. If we could see a pic I could comment further.

Where were you.: If these areas are small and do not cover large areas of the foot, then a combination of a topical antifungal and topical steroid may do the trick.
It is difficult to be certain without actually seeing the skin.
