Strange Bumps

by Coleyole, Oct 16, 2009 04:58PM
I recently found a small bump on the underside of my right foot.  it has been growing.  It's pretty painful when pressure is applied, but not otherwise.  it's up near my toes, and another one has started growing on my left foot in the same location. What do i do to get rid of them? aAe there any home remedies?

i would have this checked by a podiatrist to make sure it is benign.  if the bump is superficial, it can be scraped off and sent to pathology to identify it.   if it is deeper, it can be surgically removed as well.
