Plantar wart
I have been using a tennis ball that I found to rub out the bottom of my foot. More as a preventative than anything. As a runner my feet are very important to me and take a beating.
as I am rubbing the ball, I discovered a new use for it: finding plantar warts. I felt a sharp prick like a sliver, and after further investigation found it to be a small wart. I've had them before, so i have the Dr. Scholl's at the ready. I like the medicated discs with the round pads. this one was just off the ball of my foot and i never would have found it if i didn't rub my foot with a ball. You might want to give your feet a careful going over. I know I would hate to be sidelined because of a wart. I'm glad I found it now, before it got too big and painful.

You know thats a really good idea on how to find these, I would have never though about this. I've always used a rolled or a water bottle filled with watet or frozen water for plantar fasc exercises but never a ball to find warts. I'm going to have to remember that. Also really nice to have found it early enough to deal with it before it becomes a bother.
