Use the cream only as prescribed and on the small area.If it doesn’t improve in a week then get it re-examined by an orthopedist.

Aqueria-HF is a keratolytic cream and short-term use can be safe if applied only on the lesion, once daily and avoiding surrounding normal skin, but it should be used very cautiously in toddlers and stopped if redness burning or pain increases antibiotic syrup is usually not needed unless there are signs of infection like discharge, spreading redness, or fever minor surgery should not be rushed most such lesions improve with pressure relief soft footwear, avoiding tight shoes careful topical treatment, and time
