What Does A Black Spot And Swelling After Pulling Out A Thorn In Foot Suggest?
A thorn went in my foot and i pulled it out at that time(not sure) .i.e. 2 months before. and suddenly it started swelling near that place. i went to a doctor and he told me to do a minor surgery. He didnt tell me the cause. A blackened thing can be seen. I dont like the surgery. and also he gave me 4 types of tablets? I dont know why he gave them.. Will it really affect that thorn? can i use needle and do it at home using corn cap? it pains when pressed.

Hi,
It seems that tip of thorn might have left on the part giving rise foreign body reaction producing infection,soreness and pain.
This remained tip of thorn must be required.
After removal of tip with needle or small incision will give your cure of your problem.
Do not try by your self.
Ok and take care.
