How To Cure Faciitis Fibroma?
I have a nodule on the bottom (arch) of my right foot which appears to be facitis fibroma, (and confirmed by my internist). I am experiencing some discomfort, but not so much at present. Will an ice pack help me, or should I try another relief therapy? Also, I've been reading blogs that state cortosone shots aren't effective in the long run. My internist will recommend me to a podiatrist if the condition becomes painful. So, he is waiting for my cue.
Please advise and thank you very much in advance.

Hi dear thanks for the query on HCM
For the give lump you need to offload your weight from that area for sometime. You can apply ice or anything that soothens.
If the pain is not bearable surgery is the only option.
Offloading the weight would be the best thing at present
Thank you
