What causes lower right abdominal pain that's tender to the touch?

Podiatrist - Dx my foot pain!?

  • SO, I've been trying to get in shape and doing a little walk/jog around the neighborhood a few night per week. Now I have developed this pain essentially on the ball of my lt foot. It is exquisitely touch tender, but on a very specific point. I would say this point is not ON the ball of my foot, but just on the big toe side of the ball of the foot. It causes pain to curl my toes, flex my toes, and of course to walk. If I prop my feet up on the coffee table, I essentially cannot flex my lt ankle towards me; or at least not in the same fashion as my right. Everyone is saying "bone" spur. I don't really know what that means. I thought "gout", but I've never really had any trouble with that, and no diet changes to speak of. I did have moderate pain the other night, when on my walk/run anyway, and now the pain is quite severe x2 days. Also, if it's important, then tender-to-touch point is very small. Essentially no pain just a few mm either side of this point. Any thoughts? Also, wifey wants me to go to my PCP. Not really sure what she would do and would love to save the co-pay. Thanks in advance!

All I know is from NOT going to a podiatrist, from breaking a baby toe, in September.....I ended up with a rotting bone and nerve pain beyond belief. I went way later than I should have! Had surgery in JANUARY!! It is now March and it is finally getting back to normal!! SO.....if this is still hurting you...just go. Pretty soon your back is going to hurt from walking wrong from that foot. It hurts the hips, knees, and just trust me...it is not worth it! Just listen to your wife and spend the co-pay...it may solve much worse problems down the road, if you don't go.
