Brief Answer:
Planter warts; Freezing Or CO 2 Laser ablation

Detailed Answer:
Hi.

Thank you. I have reviewed the Images.
These seem to be plantar warts to me. Warts are an infection caused by Human Papilloma Virus.
They can be either freezed with liquid nitrogen Or can be ablated with CO 2 Laser. I suggest that you visit a dermatologist in your vicinity for the needful.

Regards
