Abstract
A 20-year old obese male patient presented with painful, soft, skin-coloured papules and nodules on medial side of heels. These lesions appeared only when the patient stood upright and disappeared when weight was taken off the feet. The condition was diagnosed as painful piezogenic pedal nodules. Obesity might have accelerated the development of these unusually large lesions.
