What Do Dark Spots On The Bottom Of The Feet Indicate?
I have tiny dark spots at the bottoms of my feet, right at the arches. They re sometimes painful with vigirous long distance walking, and seem to enlarge the more I walk. The sensation is that of a (stretching-pulling of the sking when I walk, right at the center of the arch) Any way to prevent/get rid of this, and have my skin even out in color again?
Your symptoms seem to be related to plantar warts. They are usually painful and may develop singly or in clusters. I recommend using over-the-counter wart treatments come in several forms (gel, ointments or pads) and contain salicylic acid as the active ingredient. If the symptoms continue I recommend a visit to a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi,
