    Anyone have any idea what a lump would be in the middle of the bottom of my foot. This lump is right under my middle toe. When I walk barefoot it feels terrible. IT IS THE SIZE OF A NICKEL. I was wondering if a spur could be there instead of the heel of the foot.

    If you are trying to impart that the lump is in the arch area of the foot, it may be a Dupuytren's nodule, also known as plantar fibromatosis. You can easily read more about this condition by doing a search on the Internet. But there is no way for me to confirm that impression, and it is important to note that all lumps MUST be examined by a qualified doctor in order to establish an accurate diagnosis and to determine whether or not it is a serious medical problem such as a malignancy. There is little value in going into specific treatments without a definitive diagnosis.
