Hi there

Had a very, very small cut on the bottom of my foot (on the sole, about an inch back from the pinky toe). Obviously it's on the ball of my foot where I tend to put pressure. The cut was maybe 1/8" long but a little deep. After the cut I was walking around on the pavement for a while. Tried to get all the grit out of it but not sure if I did? Anyway it healed, no infection. But I have a sharp pain there now. It's healed over, a little scabby. I'm wondering if there is a grain of reef or sand or dirt in there still that's causing the pain??? What can I do? Hate to make a whole doc visit over this but I don't want it to turn into an issue.

Oh it's been almost 2 months since the initial cut.

ain't no doc, but if it ain't inflamed or red streaks around it should be ok. should eventually come out. the body will reject it.
