What Could The Pea Size Lump In The Heel Of The Foot Which Is Invisible Be?

I have a small pea size lump on the bottom of my foot on the padding. You can't see it only feel it and its very pain full to touch or walk on. I have picked at it and it looks like nothing but doesn't go away. I originally thought I had glass in my foot but its been a year.

Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.

After reading your post, it seems that you might be having a Corn in your foot.
Most common cause is continued frction on hard surface like hard shoes.

Corn caps are available in the market, which can be applied over the swelling.
It will soften the skin and help in removal of the swelling.

I would advise you that you should first get yourself clinically examined and investigated before starting any treatment.

I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
