Detailed Answer:
Hello sir and welcome.

Thank you for writing to us.

I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. If you do not mind, you could attach a clear image to our discussion here or email it to me at:

YYYY@YYYY and do mention 'ATTN: DR SHOAIB KHAN' in the subject line so it can easily be directed to me.

But in my opinion, the presentation is that of a corn on the base or sole of your foot, this usually occurs due to any of the following reasons:

+Poor or uncomfortable footwear
+Long distance use of footwear resulting in poor hygiene
+Sharing footwear from a person who has a corn
and a few others.

The approach towards treatment of a corn is the following:

+We need to take the pressure off from the corn and so in the market you get specially designed corn cushions, please do initiate using these at the earliest

+Wear loose comfortable footwear so as to prevent the development of corns

+Salicylic acid preparation also available at the pharmacist to be applied over the corn to help dissolve it over time

I hope you find my response helpful and informative. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.

Best wishes.
