Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have gone through the attached photograph.
The lesion looks like evolving plantar warts.
As first-line management, you can apply over the counter available salicylate cream (duofilm is a popular brand) at the bedtime and apply a tight dressing over it. Around half of the patients shows good results with salicylate.
If there is no response or size is increasing, you have to go for cauterization or LASER therapy after consulting a dermatologist.
As of now no need to rush as it is a harmless condition.
Hope I have answered your query.
Thanks
