Introduction

Understanding Corns and Calluses

Before delving into the various treatment options available, it's important to have a clear understanding of what corns and calluses are. Corns are small, hardened areas of skin that usually develop on the top or sides of toes. They are often caused by excessive pressure, such as from tight-fitting shoes or abnormal foot mechanics. Calluses, on the other hand, are larger areas of thickened skin that typically appear on the soles of the feet.

Both corns and calluses can be quite uncomfortable, causing pain and irritation. If left untreated, they can become even more bothersome and lead to further complications. That's why seeking professional corn callus treatment is essential.

Treatment Options

1. Non-Invasive Treatments

For mild cases of corns and calluses, non-invasive treatments can often provide effective relief. Our skilled podiatrists will carefully evaluate your condition and recommend the most suitable treatment options, which may include:

  • Footwear Modifications: Wearing shoes that fit properly and provide adequate support can significantly reduce pressure on your feet, helping to prevent the formation of corns and calluses.
  • Padding: Applying padding to the affected areas can provide cushioning and protect your feet from further friction or pressure.
  • Custom Orthotics: In some cases, custom-made orthotic devices can be prescribed to address underlying foot imbalances, relieving pressure on specific areas and preventing the recurrence of corns and calluses.

2. Medications and Topical Treatments

If conservative measures are not sufficient, our podiatrists may recommend the use of medications or topical treatments to manage corns and calluses. These treatments may include:

  • Salicylic Acid: Topical products containing salicylic acid can help soften and remove the thickened skin associated with corns and calluses.
  • Prescription Medications: In certain cases, prescription medications may be necessary to address underlying infections or reduce inflammation.

3. Minor Surgical Procedures

In more severe cases or when conservative treatments fail to provide adequate relief, our skilled podiatrists may recommend minor surgical procedures. These may include:

  • Trimming or Debriding: The podiatrist will carefully trim or remove the thickened skin to relieve discomfort.
  • Correction of Foot Mechanics: In certain cases, surgical interventions may be performed to correct foot deformities or imbalances contributing to the development of corns and calluses.
