Cyst On Pressure Point Of Foot, Painful. Have It Surgically Removed?

Hi. I have what appears like a cyst on a pressure point on the side of my foot which is extremely painful. This is ongoing for the past 7 months. Initially I had a varucca in the very same spot which the doctor froze. I believe its still there, the skin has grown over the area fully and a cyst formed. This is extremely painful and i am waiting to have it surgically removed. Could this turn cancerous

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi and welcome to HCM. Thank you for your query.
This sounds like clavus or veruca again which can grow into deep and cause intensive pain. But this cant turn cancerous because this has no malignant potential. It should be surgically removed and sent to PHD analysis becaue it will not pass by itself. Wish you good health.
