Hi.
As per your case history you may be having either lichenified eczema or viral wart.
My treatment advice is -
1. Wear soft footwear that avoids irritation on affected part.
2. Apply a salicylic acid 3% cream on affected part once daily.
3. If problem persists after 3 weeks then consult a dermatologist.
Thanks.
