Its looking like a plantar wart, take antiinflammatory medication for 3-5 days for swelling caused by corn cap,later wart can be removed by electrocauterization method or laser

Hi thanks for the query,well by the look of the picture you sent it looks like you have a wart and not a corn.wart is a viral infection of the skin.see a dermatologist near you and they will suggest you treatment options.ablative procedure is the best way to get rid of it.ask for laser treatment.all the best.
