Hello,
Thanks for the query,
You might be suffering from plantar warts.
These are viral infection caused by HPV virus.
Treatment is by local application of keratolytics like salicylic acid.
If you dont get relief with these, radiofrequency ablator can be used to destroy the virus affected skin.
Maintain personal hygiene, wash your feet twice daily with soap and water.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
