    My husband has had a pain on the ball of the bottom of his foot for a couple of years. He is now complaining of the pain getting worse. He's sure it is a sliver. It looks callused over and a little swolen. He had me dig in there looking for a sliver, but I cannot get beneath any of the white callus. I don't believe this is a sliver. What do you think?

    What I think is that after 2 years of complaining, it's time he go see a podiatrist. It doesn't sound like something terribly involved, but, certainly, you should not be digging in his foot.
