: A friend recently had surgery to remove a bump from his foot. The doctor thought it may be a rare wart. The doctor removed part of the wart but left the roots. After surgery, the doctor - a surgeon - wasn't sure if it was a wart or not. Six weeks later another bump has appeared next to the prior bump. The bump is hard, small and looks like someone is trying to push a pin through the skin from the inside out. Any ideas as to what it could be? Thanks

Hi when I was about 10 years old I had a bump that resembled a wart but gradually grew larger and needed to be removed. It also had roots. I believe it was some form of a gangelion cyst. Go see a Podiatrist, they have helped me in many ways and also have the expertise that a general surgeon doesnt have.
