For over about two years I have had a strange bump on the inside of my big toe. It does not hurt or sting in anny way, but it is disturbing. I know for a fact that it is not a mole and it is not a bite. However when i pick at it, it does bleed. It is really small no bigger than a pimple, and it is the same color as my skin tone. I was just sitting here reading these different Questions and it occured to me that I had to ask. If anny one has anny idea as to what it might be or how to get rid of it I ask you to please answer me. That would be GREAT!!!

Sounds like a planters wart. It's a virus that causes excess skin cells to be produced and you get a lump of skin that can hurt, or itch, or feel like nothing.
Dr. Scholls wart/corn remover works to get rid of them, but it takes a month or so. A little disc of a mild acid is placed on the lump and then a pad is stuck on to prevent damage. It eventually goes away.

Just to be nitpicky, any is spelled with only one n.
As for the bump, it could possibly be a wart. Hard to say. You need to see a doctor about it to be sure. Go to your family doc or look in the phone book for a podiatrist (that's a foot doctor).

Did it ever occur to you to ask a real medical doctor instead of a bunch of strangers on the net? lol
