"Seed Corn" On Heel-Self Medicate or See a Foot Dr.??

09-09-2006, 06:46 PM

I've had what I'm pretty sure is a seed corn (not the medical term). It mainly hurts only when pressure is applied...like when walking! I've had it for years, it's just on one foot in the center of the heel. I've read some real horror accounts about letting a DR start cutting...but I would like to get rid of this for good. Any ideas on the best treatment?

Thanks

I am also in same situation, except ive had the corn for about 3 months. I am also in terrible pain and as a person who exercises often and stands on my job all day i feel terrible with it being there. im going to a podiatrist on thursday so wil let u know what treatment is suggested.

I had something on the bottom of my foot near my toes. I cant remember what it was called but it was a bump and hurt when I walked. I had laser surgery and no problem since then. (it took a few days to stop draining and I had to stay off of it but other than that-no problem. It might have been some kind of wart.
