Brief Answer:
Wart

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

I am Dr kakkar (Dermatologist and Venereologist). I have noted your concern and I have viewed the images.
Seems like a wart / verruca vulgaris. I suggest you to use a topical keratolytic preparation e.g Salicylic acid and Lactic acid lotion (Duofilm liquid or Salactin paint) once every evening for a few days. It is a prescription product and I advice you to kindly talk to your local practitioner for a prescription of the same.

Regards
