View allI've had surgery for a foot corn before, but it seems like it's coming back. I'm really hoping to find a permanent solution for this. Is it possible to get rid of it for good with Homeopathy?
It is possible to treat foot corns with homeopathy, but it may require a personalized treatment plan from a skilled homeopath. Addressing the underlying cause, such as pressure or friction, along with constitutional remedies, can help in providing a more lasting solution. However, it's important to consult a professional for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

I've been dealing with a heel spur for the past 4 months and it's not healing even with homeopathic treatment. As someone with diabetes and hypertension, I'm worried about complications. Are there any effective non-surgical treatments I can try for this stubborn heel spur?
Whether surgery is needed depends on the exact diagnosis, size, and severity of the condition. Some cases can be managed without surgery, while others may require it for effective treatment. A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

I'm a bit worried about something. About six months ago, I got a small splinter in my foot, and I'm not sure if it ever came out. Oddly, I didn't feel any pain or discomfort for weeks, maybe even months. But just recently, I've been getting this irritating feeling, like the splinter might still be there, especially when I'm walking or even just sitting around. Could it still be inside my foot somehow? What could be causing this irritation now?
It is possible that the splinter may still be embedded in your foot, causing irritation and discomfort. I would recommend using a pair of tweezers sterilized with alcohol to carefully remove the splinter. After removing the splinter, clean the area with antiseptic solution and apply an antibiotic ointment. You can also take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen to help with any pain or inflammation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
