The Real Medical Risk: Could It Be a Plantar Wart?
Most yellow bumps are corns/calluses. But shoe-sharing can spread things—especially if the inside of the sneaker stays damp and sweaty.
Plantar warts (verrucas) can spread through shared surfaces and footwear.

- Tiny black dots inside the bump (often tiny clotted blood vessels, not “seeds”).
- Pain when you squeeze from the sides more than when you press straight down.
- Interrupts the normal skin lines (corns often look like thickened skin in a predictable spot; warts can distort the pattern).
