I'm really worried about this corn that's been on my foot for about 34 months. At first, I thought it was just an injury, but a friend mentioned it might be a corn. I've noticed small dots appearing on my toes too. I tried using corn caps twice for 3 days each time, and it only caused white and yellow patches, but the corn itself didnt go away. I'm really worried now and dont want to consider surgery since I've heard its not a permanent solution. What else can I try to get rid of this?

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.

Hey, I'm a 23-year-old and lately, I've been noticing these pulses on the inner part of my foot. It's been a few days now, and I can't figure out whether it's normal or if it's linked to stress or something else. Should I be worried about this? Are there any specific tests or checks that you'd suggest I go through to figure out what's happening?
1) Feeling pulses in the inner area of your foot can sometimes be normal, especially if you are young and physically active. However, if this sensation is persistent or accompanied by other symptoms such as pain, swelling, or discoloration, it may be a sign of an underlying issue. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation. 2) If you are concerned, your healthcare provider may recommend tests such as a Doppler ultrasound to assess blood flow in the foot, or a nerve conduction study to evaluate nerve function. These tests can help determine the cause of the pulsations and rule out any potential underlying conditions.
