Suggest Treatment For Black Spots On The Heal

I have deep black spots on my heal with white surrounding them. They look like small pieces of dirt or debris got into a hole in my foot but when I try to extract the black particle it is hooked to my skin very well. What is happening and is it bad? It doesn t hurt at all but it s big, about the size of a pin head.

Hi, it looks like an plantar wart/verruca. You can buy some wart removing paint from any pharmacy. Ask the pharmacist to look at your lesion first. Follow the instructions on the pack. You may need to do this for a few weeks before you see any result .

hope this helps

thank you
