Corns Treatments

Corns are small, localised areas of thickened skin caused by repeated pressure or friction, commonly found on the toes, between the toes, or on specific areas of the sole. Corns often contain a hard central core that can cause significant pain when walking or wearing shoes. If left untreated, corns may become inflamed, cracked, or infected—especially in diabetic patients.

At Footcare Clinic, corns are treated using a safe, systematic, and cause-based approach, focusing not only on removal but also on long-term prevention.
