Itching And Pain In Soles Of Foot, No Rash. Prominent Vein. What Might It Be?

Hi. There is a small area at the sole of my left foot next to thebig toe where an itch and some pain come n go. The itch lasts a bit then goes away. The pain is seen more when I put pressure on that area of the toe. There is no sign of any rash or fungus. Everything looks normal except when it hurts or itches it seems like there is a vain that sticks out more than when it s not itching. What might it be?

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
The description given by you suits the diagnosis of plantar wart or corn.

A visit to dermatologist will help in diagnosis and treatment.

Pain and itching can be caused by viral wart/psoriasis/dyskeratotic eczema.
Hope this helps.
