What Is The Knot At The Center Of My Feet?

Hi my foot has been hurting since I woke up the pad of my foot right beneath my toes in the center feels like a knot and is painful to put pressure on. It started to swell up and is hot, it feels tingly and throbbing it is also red in the area on the bottom. I'm not sure if I might've been bitten by something.

Hello,
It could be a bite, a plantar wart, a cyst or infection. If it is red and hot, these are signs of inflammation or infection. It would be good to have a doctor or podiatrist take a look at it to determine the cause and appropriate treatment
