Suggest Treatment For Painful Heels And Feet
I have been feeling pain in heel of my right feet from last 3 days. Today it hurts me more than before so i tried to know the reason and found there is small black thing but when i tried to took it out it was a about 1 inch long hair so i am really worried . Is it something serious ? Do i need to see the doctor?

Hello, Heel skin cannot grow hair and this must be a something which entered the skin from outside.Probably dog hair or a bit of nylon thread.You probably do not have pain any more and there ends the matter Take care when you go bare footed on the beach and elsewhere.Good luck
