I've got this corn on my left foot, and I'm wondering if using a corn cap will help it go away, or do you think it's better to see a doctor? I've also attached a picture of it for reference.

Corn caps can be effective in treating corns. You can try using a corn cap containing salicylic acid. Make sure to follow the instructions on the package. Apply it as directed, usually for a few days, to help soften the corn and eventually remove it. If the corn persists or if you experience any pain, it is advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

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.
