What Causes Burning Sensation And Hard Lump On The Foot?
Hi, I am experiencing a burning sensation on my left foot, far left side, almost to the edge of the foot. There is a hard bump there that is sensitive to the touch. That specific area is a bit red. I believe this began yesterday and I woke up with it this morning. Any ideas what this might be?

Hello,
Red spots or patches can be caused by conditions or diseases such as allergies, athlete's foot, or blisters. Be sure to monitor the spots on your feet to ensure they don't worsen. Most causes aren't serious and are easily treated at home. I suggest to use an anti-fungal cream for local application such as Clotrimazole cream.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
