I think I've a foot corn

2022-12-27 05:18:57
There's a small lump on the backside of my feet and I'm confused if it is a footcorn or a callus. It is small and whenever pressure is applied there it's painful. I've applied corn bandages but nothing came off. Is it corn or callus??

This looks more like plantar wart. It is viral hpv infection. It will start spreading if not treated. Please do online consultation

It could be a corn which will pain on vertical pressure. A plantar wart pains on pinching.
