I have a small bulging of around 4-5mm in my foot bottom side. if i touch i dont feel any pain but if i press i feel pain. what should i do?
Brief Answer:
Possibility of corn development??
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I may not be able to diagnose the condition, however, I would consider the possibility of corn developing in that area as the most likely cause.
I suggest wearing a soft and comfortable foot wear. Use a pumice stone on the affected area to soften the bulge. If the ache worsens or if you notice new symptoms/signs on the affected area, you should see a doctor for clinical evaluation.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarification.

Brief Answer:
Footwear that is not confortable...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Corn can occur with hard and uncomfortable footwear. But ortho slippers usually do not cause it.
Furthermore, small corns will slowly go away with adequate foot care. You can also try rubbing the corn with a pumice stone.
I will recommend physical examination if you feel what you've had is not a corn.
