Corns need to be differentiated from warts on the feet. They look similar and an expert is required to have a look at the lesion. If it is a wart, treatment needs to be taken immediately as it can spread from one person to the other. There are medical and surgical ways of managing both conditions. Medical treatment is with daily application of a certain formulation along with removing the superficial skin by mild scrubbing. Cryotherapy is also an option for warts. Both can be surgically removed, either manually or by cautery. For more details, please consult a certified dermatologist.
