I have developed a minir blister on the bottom of one toe. After a few months I noticed I got several other small "blisters" that seemed to spread on the toe next to it. These blisters things are not filled with fluid. They seem to be tough skin. How do I get rid of this and what is it?

Blisters on my feet?

I agree with the others. The lesions look like warts and should be treated by a Podiatrist or Dermatologist. If untreated they will only spread to more areas. They will not go away on their own or with over the counter medications.
Differential diagnosis could include tertiary tinea pedis or plantar warts (from picture). Based on discription I would go with tinea pedis and treat with hygiene - wash and dry feet daily, periodically was socks in hot water and no added detergent ( get rid of old detergent), topical anti fungal (Rx or OTC) and clean insides of shoe with spray, dry cloth or "steri light".
If there is discomfort with plantar to dorsal pressure and transverse pressure the forget the above and treat as plantar wart.
My opinion - no improvement see doctor.

Agreement with my colleagues, verruca and/ or fungal. Go see a podiatrist for treatment.
You may have warts, which are viral lesions, usually very easy to treat. Over the counter medication does not work as well on these as on warts on the fingers/hands. There is also a possibility you could have a fungal infection or some other type of skin lesions. It is usually very easy for a Podiatrist to determine the diagnosis, and offer several treatment options. These come up on their own, and either type of lesion can "spread." Moisture helps to result in their formation.
I agree with my colleagues responses. These are warts. See your local podiatrist for further evaluation and treatment.
These appear to be warts which are a viral infection of the skin. The medical term for a wart is a verruca, or verrucae if there are more than one. There is typically nothing you did or failed to do that allowed these to occur. The viral infection is at the living deep layer of the skin called the dermis. The skin on the bottom of the foot is very thick since it is were we bear weight, so warts in this area of the body can sometimes be difficult to resolve with over-the-counter treatments. The terms "plantar warts" just refers to warts on the bottom of the foot, called the plantar surface. If nothing over-the-counter works, then go see a podiatrist to have them treated.
