What Causes Tender Red Spot On Sole Of Foot?

default
Posted on Mon, 23 Nov 2015
Question: I have developed a very tender spot on the sole of my foot. Very red, and each day it worsens. If I look really close it appears to have multiple little bubbles under the surface. It is not an open sore
I have taken pictures. Wish I could share them.
Hurts to walk on it, hurts when I'm sitting, just hurts. .

Hi and thanks so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this tender spot that you have reported. unfortunately, the image cannot be viewed at this time. I will suggest you upload another image of better quality.

However, the information you have provided is suggestive of an infection. you will most likely need antibiotics and proper wound careto get this treated. For this, I will suggest you visit your primary care doctor for confirmation and treatment.

Also, I will like to review further messages for confirmation and more insights.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
