Doctor can examine: Possibly a wart? A wart is a lump on the skin caused by papilloma viruses (it sometimes spreads to others). A corn is a lump of dead skin material formed where there is repeated pressure or friction on the skin (happens without viruses). Both types of lumps can push into the bottom of a foot because on the sole, a person stands or walks on the lumps all day.
