Corns & Calluses

Corns and calluses are thickened areas of skin that develop as a protective response to repeated friction or pressure. While they are common and often harmless, they can cause discomfort and pain, especially when left untreated.

Key Features of Corns & Calluses

Corns: Corns are small, circular, and usually form on the tops and sides of the toes. They have a hard center surrounded by inflamed skin and can be painful when pressed.
Calluses: Calluses are larger, flatter, and typically develop on the soles of the feet, especially on weight-bearing areas like the heels or balls of the feet. They are generally painless but can become uncomfortable with continued pressure.

If you are experiencing discomfort from corns or calluses, it is important to seek professional evaluation and treatment. At Podiatry Health & Wellness, our team offers expert care and personalized treatment plans to help you maintain healthy, pain-free feet.
