A member asked:

Is it typical to get small rashes from socks?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible allergy: Without seeing the rash it is not possible to give you a certain answer. Anything from a fungal infection to a contact dermatitis is possible. If this persists then you should have it examined.
