If you happen to wear tight fitting shoes or tend to stand for the majority of your day, it’s likely that you may develop a foot condition known as a corn. When frequent friction or pressure is put on the foot, a small, hardened lump may form in that area. A corn may have a yellow hue and can typically be found on the side of the toes, as well as on the bottom of the feet. Though they are generally harmless, corns can often bring many patients discomfort.

To help prevent yourself from developing a corn, it’s important to wear shoes that give your toes enough room to comfortably move around. Some patients may also find it useful to soak the feet with warm water, pat them dry, and apply a moisturizer. After practicing these steps over a period of time, the corn will most likely soften. Your podiatrist may choose to file the corn down.

Podiatric Foot Care For Corns and Calluses

Switching to supportive footwear and avoiding flimsy ballet shoes or thin flats can help minimize symptoms from corns and calluses. Always make sure your toes have enough room to move and flex as you walk, and use protective padding to cushion sore areas. Ice can be used to reduce swelling and inflammation. Custom orthotics are another excellent option. At Podiatry Inc., we use the FOOTMAXX Metascan to measure our patient’s gait and get a look at any abnormalities. We then utilize the data collected to craft a custom orthotic uniquely suited to each patient’s needs.

If those measures don’t provide enough relief, your doctor may recommend surgery. If you choose this route, your physician will surgically realign the underlying bone, soft tissue and nerves to ease discomfort and correct the abnormality.

For more information and professional removal of your corn, we recommend you consult with a podiatrist for an advised treatment plan.
