I have had this skin problem since I was about 18. I am now in my thirties. It is about the size of a fifty pence and raised. It covers over with hard skin then the skin comes off leaving the raised area slightly red or it is covered in flaky, dry skin. It looks awful in the summer so I would appreciate if someone could tell me how to remedy this.

Have you tried Sorbolene cream? (Or any aqueous cream - really cheap from any chemist) It's really useful for any skin condition, and is the foundation of most skin creams anyway. We think regular moisturisation is the key, but if it's still bad see your doctor.
BTW - it's not a corn by the sounds of it (I had one once) and bunions are very painful, apparently (my nan had one)

It sounds like a corn or bunion. A good chemist will tell you what ointments to buy. Doctor can also apply a freezer spray to remove it.

Like they say it's a corn, if you don't want to treat it you can hide it during summer by wearing wellies!
Hope this helps??
