Try to get a good pic of the bottom and top of her foot, when you can. If it is bumblefoot, I would recommend first washing the foot. Here is a video about removing bumblefoot:

Looks like it is probably a case of bumblefoot. Can you feel a "mass" below the surface of the black "scabs"?

Sorry I don’t understand what a mass is

Do you feel a small, hard lump under the black scab?

Hey, @Kiki, do you know of any bumblefoot experts who could give further guidance and advice?

The black thing kind of feels a bit tough but their is not hard lump under it

Maria, is it soft, or firm when you gently mash the lump?
