Dr Marc, I had a lump in bottom of my foot - ball of foot between big toe joint and 2nd toe joint in early 2014, 1st podiatrist said it was a callous, #2 dr. said no - it was some sort of cyst, so he excised it - about the size of my first finger joint, said it had some sort of fluid in it. Lab sent back said it was an inclusion cyst with some fluid and was completely non-cancerous. Before I got out of the surgical boot I thought it was coming back but he said he was pretty sure he got it all and that it was probably just scar tissue. #3 Dr ordered an MRI but said he really couldn't tell what it was and wanted to do surgery, but I was concerned about more scar tissue. #4 Dr.an orthopedic said go back to podiatrist #5 Dr ordered Ultrasounds, after ultrasound sent me to Ultrasound Dr to have it aspirated under ultrasound - when I arrived for the procedure he did more ultrasounds and said he was not sure it was something that could be drained and didn't know what to tell me. # 6 Dr simply said he could not help me. Amazingly several weeks after the ultrasounds early April, 2015, it pretty much went away and all I could detect was the place of scar tissue which was actually quite livable. Then in early Oct 2015 it started feeling like the same painful lump and has seemed to increase in size and pain, I now can see and feel this lump from the top side of my foot between my big toe and 2nd toe near the joints and it is terribly painful. You can feel this squishy painful feeling with every step and I have an awful time trying to find shoes
