Unbearable Pain On The Sole. Oozing Pus Like A Zit. What Could It Be?

Hello. An allmost unbearable pain has developed on the sole of my right foot . Dead central on my heel, I can touch the exact spot. I do have a lot of dead skin on this foot & was able to remove some to see if it was a veruca. The pain is a throbbing beat like pain & intensified as I got closer when suddenly a small amount of puss shot out like a zit allmost. It still hurts a lot & does I m Most cases make me feel very sick.

Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.

After reading your post, it seems that you are having abscess in your sole which needs proper medical attention.

You should consult Emergency Department and get the pus drained.
You will feel better once full pus is drained.

Also get culture/sensitivity of pus discharge done to know the appropriate antibiotic to treat the infective organism.

You may need dressing of the wound.
You may take an antibiotic according to the culture/sensitivity reports.
Painkiller like Ibuprofen can be taken twice daily after meals along with serratiopeptidase and an antacid like Omeprazole 40 mg once a day for relief.

I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
