Brief Answer:
Not wart

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the follow up and photographs.
It doesn't appear to be wart.
It's just peeling of skin.
Don't worry, it won't spread to your child.
Apply tretinoin 0.05% cream daily in night for a month.
This should give you relief.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.

Thank you for your reply doctor. Skin is not peeling off but when I touch I feel it is hard and rough. I just want to ensure we are on the same page.
