Some bumps with fluid are coming out on my right foot on the inside right where my foot arches. When I touch them they hurt, not painfully though. They have been coming and going for years however I have ignored them. I remember once when I fell and had to receive a tetanus shot for my wound it seems the shot help the bumps not appear for quite sometime (months). I also remember when I was 12 I receive a real nasty cut right where the bumps are coming up, back I didn't get proper treatment for it more than some at home medicine was applied to the wound; the wound wasn't stiched so it healed on its own.
Now the bumps seem to be reappearing with much more freqency. When they heal they usually dry out and then the skin gets dark and then flakes off, then several other new bumps appear on my foot. I know I need to see the doctor ASAP, but can someone tell me what's wrong?

look at stephizzal's answer as I think she might be right, as I did cut my foot at age 12 and did not get proper treatment for it. So what's the viral infetion called?

see doctor, but i wouldn't be surprised if this was caused by a viral infection, similar to the one which causes coldsores on the lips. it has the classic symptoms of fluid filled blister type bumps which are not really painful but crop up in batches.

I had the same thing happen to that part of my foot, and it turned out to be ringworm....are the bumps in a circular pattern? If so, that's probably it. Otherwise, get to the doctor.
