I have been suffering with a slight foot problem for the last 6 months. The problem involves a plugged pore. It's on the outside of my left foot just behind my little toe. It's a hard spot that could be best described as a corn. I've tried hitting it with a pumas stone. That has not worked.
It can be painful at times when I am walking around and then can just as quickly can be hardly felt.
I had this problem about three years ago and Dr. O'Connor referred me to a podiatrist, Dr. Whitting. He solved the problem quickly and efficiently and I was pain free for a couple years.
I noticed the problem again back in March and mentioned the problem to Dr. O'Connor when I saw him in April. He pulled out a little scalpel and hacked at the problem and it felt better for about half a day.
But the pain quickly returned and has been plaguing me ever since.
I finally arranged to see Dr. Whitting again and today was the day. I am fresh out of his office and feeling much better. However, there is still kind of a hard spot in that area.
Dr. Whitting said that it may require a freezing session. He usually treats this sort of thing like a wart and freezing the thing off seems to offer the most permanent solution.
It does feel much better and I'm going to keep an eye on it.
Now, I have to go to the local Social Security office to fix a problem with my account. I expect to be there for a couple of hours.
