A verruca? Podiatrist says not?

I think this is a verruca. Podiatrist has twice told me it’s not but I’m convinced it is. I’ve had it over a year and it won’t go away. Should I see someone else?!

What do they say it is? Looks like one to me, but then, I’m not a podiatrist…

Same podiatrist or different ones?

Same podiatrist. I think it is. She reckoned it was something stuck in my foot 🙄

I’ve got multiple of these that I also assumed were verrucas, been with me 10+ years! Podiatrist assures me they’re not verrucas, more likely a pressure point with a build-up of hard skin around them. They look pretty gross but they’ve not grown or spread like a verruca would.

@FuriousInventionsthanks. Interesting that you have similar 👍

The little black dots would indicate that they’re verrucas. Maybe get a second opinion?
