And then it becomes white as i dont touch it or do anything, after that i ve cut the hard surface of it with nail clippers. Then it turns white and it hurts.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Corn caps will not help to treat plantar wart.
It is advisable to get it excised by electro-cautery under local anesthesia as there warts need to be removed from the roots to prevent its recurrence.
Kindly contact Dermatologist in this regard for administration of treatment.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
