What Causes White Bumps Around Scar Tissue After An Injury?

Hi, as a lifeguard during training I jumped off the stand into the water and punctured the top of my foot on a fake brick we used for weight training. The wound took awhile to heal because of its depth. It s now 4 months later it has become scar tissue. It s still very discolored though and I recently noticed several small white bumbs on the edge of the scar tissue. At first I though it wa shuts extra scar tissue however wanted to make sure.

Hi. This now sounds like a plantar wart
That isn't too serious but you should have a doctor look at it to see if it needs to be surgically excised
