Re: Smallish white lumps on both heal

Piezogenic pedal papules is a benign condition consisting of normal fat tissue that has extruded through the dermis. The papules usually appear on the plantar aspect of the foot and heel and are more marked on the medial aspect; they may also occur near the wrist and lateral borders of the hand. They are visible only when the patient is weight bearing and immediately disappear in a non­weight-bearing posture. Occasionally, the papules will be painful.

Hope that helps!
