Corns / Calluses are areas of hard, thickened skin that develop
when the skin is exposed to excessive pressure or friction.
They commonly occur on the feet and can cause pain and discomfort when you walk.
Corns will not get better unless the cause of the pressure is removed. If it isn’t removed then the skin could become thicker and more painful over time.
Calluses are hard, rough areas of skin that are often yellowish in colour. They usually develop around the heel area or on the skin under the ball of the foot or when the feet are dry.
Corns and calluses form over a toe joint or under the ball of the foot where there is an increase in pressure on walking.
The podiatrist will be able to remove corns/ calluses using a sharp blade to remove the thickened area of skin. This is painless and should help reduce pain and discomfort. They can also provide advice on self-care and prescribe special insoles.
