foot problems

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

 

Last week I suddenly had a bump appear on top of my foot and it was

hurting me when I walked. I went to the podiatrist yesterday and he

said that this is common; it occurs when 2 bones collide with one

another, causing inflammation and sometimes pain- depending on the

person. He said that since it hurts me when I walk, I should have

surgery to shave off the top of the bone. I feel uncomfortable doing

that and was thinking maybe someone knew of a doctor I could see in

the northern NJ area that wouldn't immediately jump to the conclusion

that I need surgery. I just have a bad feeling that he wants to

operate on me when it really isn't necessary. Additionally, if anyone

has any ideas for natural stuff I can do, I would be really

interested to hear.

 

Thanks for your help,

Aliza
