Hi,

My daughter went to podiatrist for growth/bump on big toe. X-ray showed a small bone growth. Dr. said only way to remedy is to go in and file down.

Fortunately, this appears unnecessary as it is not causing pain. Good thing all these kids wear is thong sandles.

Now she noticed the same sort of bump on middle finger. She has had for yrs and assumed it was writer's bump.

The dr. said this bone growth can be caused by inflammation.

Have any of you had experience with this sort of thing? This girl has all the luck!

I am grateful that we are finding ways to get all these aches and pains taken care of. I think they contribute to her fatigue.
