It seems to be a callus, which is very similar to corns. Ask your father to stop wearing that shoe. You can try with salicylic acid ointments and see if it softens or it can be removed by a minor procedure called paring where the excess thick, hard skin is removed. Once the hard skin is removed the pain subsides. Warm regards. Dr. Rajdeep Mysore. Chirag Hospital Bangalore
