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?

View allI'm having some pain in my ankle and I'm worried it might be because of my flat foot. It seems to hurt the most when I get up in the morning or after I've been sitting for a while. Do you think this could be plantar fasciitis? I'm not sure what to do about it.

I accidentally stepped on a stapler pin recently during a function and it poked my foot. I pulled it out quickly and only had a tiny droplet of blood and a slight pinch. It's been a few days and Im still feeling pain when I walk and its hard to put full pressure on that foot. Theres no sign of an injury or swelling, but the pain is definitely there when I press down. Should I be worried about getting a tetanus shot, or do you think it's a good idea to see a specialist about this?

I'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.
