I'm having severe pain on the top of my foot. there's a bump on the top where it hurts. i have tried pain meds and ice doesn't help. i'm 22 and female?

Neuroma?: This could be a ganglionic cyst or a mass of nerve fibers called Mortons neuroma. Please speak to your doctor who can then examine and organize an ultrasound scan of your foot to identify the cause of the pain

See doctor: You need to give more history as to how the bump came but at this point best to see your doctor

Nerve irritation.: Although there are quite a few causes for a bump on the top of the foot, at your age it more than likely is due to either a ganglion or synovial cyst. As it enlarges it often irritates a sensory nerve and the result is pain. To remove all doubt, have your foot evaluated by a foot specialist and hopefully, various treatment options can be discussed.
