Little Hard Blisters

Does anyone know what these little hard blister like things are on a persons feet ? They are on bottom and next to my big toe. I also haven't had a migrain(wrong spelling) or a cold sore on my face since being gluten free. I assume being gluten free is also helping this? I have been gluten free since Aug, 2006 :huh:

Thanks

Rebecca

Could it be plantar warts? Though gluten-free likely would have no affect on it.

They could just be callouses from your shoes - the way to check is to run your fingernail firmly (but not hard) across the bump. If it hurts and squishes, they are blisters. If it hurts and is hard, they are probably warts. If it doesn't hurt or squish, they are likely just callouses. If they are callouses, they are perfectly harmless, but if they bother you, you can sand them with an emery board when you get out of the shower and they will thin down. If they are warts, my best suggestion is to cut a hole in a potato roughly where the wart is in your foot and bury the potato in your garden - just as effective as nitrogen freezing, laser treatment or chemical burning the warts, and nowhere near as painful.

Why exactly would that work?

:lol::lol::lol: Actually this might work if you were very patient. Warts are caused by a virus and eventually the virus will leave your system. Thus if you bury the potato and wait long enough they will go away. If this wart is on the ball of your foot it could be plantars wart. Plantar warts grow in not out which is what makes them so painful. They do not appear on the toes though. You can tell a plantar wart by the fact that it is not raised and shows on the bottom of the foot as a whitish spot that is very sensitive to pressure. There are orthonics that can be attached to the bottom of your shoes that will take pressure off the wart and allow it to disapate. If the area on your foot is a lump near the toes it could also be a neuroma, don't let the name scare you it's not cancer but it is a growth on a nerve. Your best bet is to see a podiatrist for a firm diagnosis of what is going on.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Fighting for a name

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system
