On my 6 year olds foot. It’s not going away.
Before bed tonight she complained it hurt a tiny bit.

Do you have a clearer photo?

Could it be a verruca?

Is this better?

I'd say verucca. Unless you're about to say you're actually in Australia or similar, then I'd be getting her seen in case it was a bite.

Looks like a verruca to me. Take it to spooners corner, they are great at this stuff.

Verucca

PeachPlum97 · 16/02/2026 22:56

Thank you. Will have a look. I wonder if she got it at swimming lessons?

Yes, I'd say it's a verucca too.

A verucca. You can see the little black roots on the second photo

Off topic but.. what happened to verrucas?? Im sure when we were kids people used to get loads. There was always a kid at school swimming lessons in a "verruca sock" and everyone i know had one at least one.

Apart from this post (which i agree looks like a verruca), I havent heard of them in years. My kids have never had them!

Were we just a particularly infectious generation?!

Looks like a Verruca. Keep it covered as they are very contagious!

Yes, I never really hear about them now. She does do swimming lessons and I heard they have been doing PE bare foot so I guess she must have got it from one of those!
