For the past 2 weeks on the bottom of my left foot, i dont know whats it called but the cushion part theres pain. I can't see anything, but i do feel a tiny bump. And theres pain when ever i put put pressure on. I dont have health insurance so i hope its nothing serious, but the bump is smaller than a dime. Could there be anything in there?? any comments will help.
It would be a Plantar Wart.

I searched online to look at pictures of plantar warts it dosen't look anything like that. On the bottom of my foot theres a small pea size bump, its clear, painful when i put pressure on it and i kinda see something very very tiny dot of black, does that mean theres something in there??? If so do i need to see a doc to get it removed?
If it is a Plantar's wart, here are some home remedies that might work. The black dot is an indication that it is a wart.
Tea tree oil - This is a popular alternative approach. Tea tree oil is available in most health food stores and is applied daily to the lesion until it is gone.
Topical vitamin A - Topical application of vitamin A has worked for many. Some break open a vitamin A gel cap or even use cod liver oil topically.
Duct tape - don't laugh, it can work. Covering a wart with an impervious barrier, such as duct tape can alter the environment in which the wart thrives.
