I have issues of pigmentation too and its very common in people of South Asian descent like us. Ask your dermatologist if you can get a chemical peel on your toe because it evened out pigmentation on my back. lemon etc I use dtoo but it made only a little bit of difference.

yea i asked my doc for that he said first try out the cream that he gave me if nothing happens he will peel it out ...so that means iv got to do that

If the "spot" is dark and patchy almost like a callous, then u'd have u have it surgically removed =( lemon juice won't really help much and nor will most topical gels!

^ Agreed. I don't think its just the pigmentation problem.

can u tell me the name of the cream?? i have the same problem i tried getting regular pedicures and i used lemon it worked alot but not all the way . now my feet r bak to same old blclk patches on my toe. :(
watever sollution u get plz let me kno of it too
also i never kne there were chemicl peells for feet? or toez?

Isn't a podiatrist a diabetic foot doctor? I think she shud consult a derm..and NOT the one that caused her the thick pigmented callous from wart extraction!
