I hope you can shed some light on this problem. About 7 years ago I noticed a painful red spot (about an inch wide and an inch long) on the bottom of my left foot. It was very painful, never blistered, and after about 48 hours, disappeared. Over the last 7 years it has returned and disappeared a few times a year. I've gone to one doctor to see if he could explain it, and he had no idea. It seems to develop during the night while I'm asleep. The frequency has increased this year. I woke up this morning with my third one in three weeks. It is very painful to walk when it's there. Also, it kept me up quite a bit last night because of the throbbing. It's always on my left foot, and always in the same spot. It is warm to the touch, and super tender. I'm a 34 year old female with no known health conditions, other than endometriosis. I'm posting two photos. The link to upload a photo is not working. The spot is on the left side of the bottom of my left foot. It wraps up around the side of my foot about a half inch towards my outside ankle bone. The spot horizontally on the bottom and is towards the bottom of my arch.
