lump on bottom of foot
(3 discussions)
I have suddenly developed a very sore lump on my left instep. I was having a pedicure yesterday and just about came out of the chair as the girl was massaging my foot. The lump feels soft and will move around, but is very painful when I press on it. I didn’t feel it when I walk, but now that I know it’s there… I have noticed a mild discomfort when I walk.
I also have started a spin cycle class 3 weeks ago and am wondering if this is something that could be caused from the bicycle pedals? I’ve never had anything like this before. Thank You

Without seeing this, I can not say for certain. A common “lump” on the plantar fascia is a plantar fibroma. There can be other things that can be the “lump as well. I recommend you see a podiatrist for an evaluation and recommendation.

I developed a small lump on the ins-step of my left foot. It is hard and sometimes painful when walking. What oculd be causes for this and what is the recommended treatment?
