Hi. This is wart. It is viral Infection, it spreads by touch.
Ideal Treatment for this is laser or cautery. It is done at Dermatologist clinic.

if u are using salactin paint then to increase its efficacy first dip ur feet in warm water for 10 min and then apply salactin paint once a day. it takes time to heal with salactin paint
