What Causes Large White Spot Leading To Intermittent Pain On The Bottom Of Foot?

I have a large white spot on the bottom of my foot in the same location of a prior puncture wound. It hurts with shoes on or off and throbs often. I ve had acid placed on it several times by a dr. and it has done nothing for it other than eat away the good skin after blistering it. The pain comes and goes..? !

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have large white spot leading to intermittent pain on the bottom of foot . Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to may reasons like corns and calluses , plantarwarts , plantar fibromas , foot blisters .

Consult dermatologist for proper examination .
