Does anyone know what this weird thing is under my toe? Doesn't hurt, found completely by accident.

Have lots of other health stuff going on atm and I just can't cope with one more thing.

Will upload photo but it will take a mo!

Oh it's really not very clear now it's uploaded but it's like one area, but made up of multiple clear bumps.

Looks like this to me:

Contact dermatitis, probably from getting sweaty these last few days. Leave it be and it will.most probably just disappear.

I get that on my feet and hands in hot weather. Dr gives me a cream for it. I think it is similar to excema. Nothing to worry about.

Verruca.

Thank you for your ideas!

Dont think its pompholyx as it isn't painful or itchy at all, I literally only found it by accident and even after a good poke around it doesn't hurt. Contact dermatitis doesnt look dotty enough to me, this reminds me a bit of one of those weird lotus pods! Could be a verruca but I've had one of them before and it doesn't quite seem the same...

I think I'll leave it be for a week or so and see what comes of it! I am pregnant and it has been mighty hot so I'm not surprised my feet are complaining lol.

Athlete's foot?

I am fairly sure that's what mine is but it doesn't hurt either and only sometimes itches.
