View allI'm experiencing some swelling in my feet and sometimes they really hurt, especially when I'm walking around. I'm pretty concerned about it and I'm not sure what might be causing these symptoms. Could you give me some advice on what I should do or look out for?
Swelling in the feet with pain during walking can be due to various reasons. One common cause is peripheral edema, which can be managed with over-the-counter diuretics like furosemide. Additionally, elevating your legs while sitting or lying down can help reduce swelling. If the symptoms persist, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management. You will require a thorough evaluation to rule out improbably causes.

My right big toe has a super painful ingrown nail that's driving me crazy. Should I go for surgery or are there other meds or home fixes that could help? The pain is really bad and I'm not sure what to do.
This foot condition usually heals without surgery. In severe cases, your healthcare provider may need to remove part of your nail surgically through a procedure called nail avulsion. Ingrown toenail surgery keeps the edge of your nail from growing inward and cutting into your skin.

I've been dealing with something weird going on with my foot for the past few months and Im a bit worried. It started with a sharp pain in a specific spot under my right foot and at first, I thought I just stepped on something by accident. But then this small, pea-sized area developed extra layers of skin and eventually formed a kind of hole. Theres no blood or pus, but it hurts a lot when I walk. Oddly, when Im sitting or sleeping, it sometimes feels like nothings wrong. If I poke that spot though, the pain is pretty severe. Ive been walking slowly to avoid putting pressure on it, but now thats messing with my knee. What could this be? Any advice on what I should do?
X-ray rt foot P and Oblique view is advised to the patient. Ortho opinion is advised.
