My 2 pennies:

It is possible you are re-exposing yourself to urushiol oil via the boots/socks you had on during your initial contact with PI/PO/PS. However,I believe your current condition is just as likely a foot-fungi type condition.

I would probably go to a Dermatologist at this point. I hate forking out the money for a doctor visit, but sometimes you just have too.

It sounds like you have tried to self medicate and it also sounds like you have been having a tough time with this for quite a while. It is difficult to medicate an unknown condition correctly. I really believe a dermatologist could help you identify your condition. Just knowing what your condition is should give you some instant relief and provide a proper method of treatment.
Hope you get better soon!
Regards,
N8
