Split skin on ball of foot

[Aeson]

Just be glad it's on the ball of foot, rather than the foot of balls...

What the hell do I do about this? It's making it irritating to walk. The skin somehow just split open, it's like, a third of an inch wide and kinda deep (but not bleeding at all). The skin is all calloused. I've been putting up with it for a few days, figuring it'll heal but it's not healing.

I know, I know!

Go to a clinic or doctor and get it checked instead of sitting on your cry baby ass, wasting time asking about what you should do, on teh Internet.

from the symptoms you describe, it appears that amputation is the only solution.

Can't be too bad, if you don't need stitches. Just cover it with some padding/gauze.

Well I superglued it, it stings like a huge monster ***** like you said bugs. But it's staying shut.

Tomorrow it will be occupied by totally not Russian nanomilitia to ensure a peaceful secession referendum.

Perhaps his toes are also secretly developing their own Trotskyite permanent revolution- will his heel be the site of the suppression of a Kronstadt style split, led by Igor Instepanov ?

It happened to me. It eventually went away on it's own.

Could be a fungus. Lamisil...
