What does a verruca look like on the sole of my foot?

A verruca on the sole of your foot typically appears as a small, rough, and grainy growth. It may be grey or brown in colour and can have tiny black dots in the centre, which are small blood vessels. The verruca is often flat and can be surrounded by a thickened area of skin.

Key points:

  • Verrucas are small, rough growths on the skin.
