Corn in leg
I have a corn in leg. Firstly I have used corn cap. And after some days, I was using a salicylic acid and lactic acid component rich medicine in the affected portion after rubbing. But it is looking terrible. I have attached the photo of the affected portion. Please advise. Thanks in advance.

Greetings. These are not corns. Who asked you to use corn caps....! These are viral warts or plantar warts - which Is a viral infection of the skin. This needs to be cleared by procedures like cryotherapy or radio frequency ablation. See a qualified dermatologist near you. Further queries may be sent on follow up messaging. Warm regards
