What Is The Lump Like Swelling On My Left Foot?

Hi, Good day! I just wanna ask about the symptoms that I m having right now. I m not sure if this is just a simple swell or anything else. There s a little lump that has developed on top of my left foot and I feel a slight clicking sensation which is painful and I m noticing that my nerves and veins have swollen, and the pain is worst at night when I m about to go to bed. I m not also comfortable walking or even standing due to the clicking sensation. Can you please advise me what to do or maybe tell me what is this. Thanks! Rolly M.

Hi! thanks for sharing your problem of the lump like swelling on your left foot with HCM team.

After going through your description, I feel, if I were your physician and had had examined this swelling,or I can visualise, this could be:

1. degenerative bone changes leading to minor crack/fracture in the distal bones

2. tendon inflammation or tendinitis

3. gout or spur

4. soft tissue infection

Therefore, it is not really a thing for worries, but needs medical attention, an examination, x-ray and rest of the said part of your foot!

Wishing you good health.
