Bruised? Under foot...

My last run was the first time I had run entirely on the road in prep for race in a few weeks. Usually I mix it up with road and trails. I'm on week 8 so runs are 28minutes plus. I seem to have a very tender part of the bottom of my right foot on the front pad (not heel or arch). Doesn't seem to be a plantar wart. Any ideas? I have good shoes and am resting up with it strapped and comfrey oil.

This could possibly be Metatarsalgia (ball of foot) or Morton's Neuroma (pad under 3rd/4th toes). Definitely not as common as Plantar Fasciitis (heel or arch), but not any less painful. I suffered from Morton's Neuroma for quite a while and couldn't bear much weight on that side of the foot. If you haven't done any cold yet, start. Rest your foot on a cold pack, especially after being active on it. This will help ease the pain and get down the inflammation. Wishing you the best.
