    Two days ago I was simply walking into a store when I felt something in the bottom of my foot...it began near the middle and felt like a "rip" that moved from where it began toward my toes - I could feel it move...there was some pain associated with it - but tolerable...however felt very strange...now there is a soft lump, probably the size of a quarter, where the "rip" ended -a bit tender - but it isn't stopping me from normal activities. Any ideas?

    How would "ideas" possibly help? There is no way that anyone without a real investigation could tell you what the "rip" was and/or what the lump is and what, if anything, needs to be done for it. If it is of concern to you, you need answers, not "ideas," as surely you would not wish to act on someone's unsupported thoughts. I would think that if someone had a lump the size of a quarter on the foot, which in context is HUGE, one would wish at least a definitive and knowledgeable diagnosis based on a doctor's physical examination.
