Is it a corn callous or bunion on my foot?
So on both my pinky toes i have a raised bump like it's swollen, it's been like that for ages, it's darker than my other toes and it's numb also. I was wondering whether it's a corn callous or bunion and how do i get rid of it or make it slightly un-raised and dark? Also the toe nail is really small, there's no pain at all.

It is likely to be either a corn or callous. They are caused by your toe rubbing against your footwear and won't resolve unless you change footwear. It's likely that you're either wearing the wrong sized footwear (a lot of women do) or the toe box is too narrow for your feet.
A bunion (if it occurs on your pinky toe instead of your big toe it's know as a tailor's bunion) occurs at the metatso-phalangeal joint rather than the toe itself.
