Understanding Corns at the Sole of the Foot

Dealing with corns at the sole of the foot can be painful and disruptive to your daily activities. Corns are typically small, circular areas of thickened skin that develop on the feet due to constant friction or pressure. At The Foot Practice, our experienced podiatrists specialize in identifying and effectively treating corns to provide relief and improve your overall foot health.

Causes of Corns

Corns can develop as a result of wearing ill-fitting shoes, high heels, or engaging in activities that put repetitive pressure on specific areas of the foot. Additionally, foot deformities such as bunions or hammertoes can contribute to the formation of corns. Understanding the root cause of your corns is essential in developing a personalized treatment plan.

Prevention and Treatment Options

When it comes to preventing corns at the sole of the foot, proper footwear is crucial. Ensure that your shoes fit well and provide adequate support to avoid friction and pressure points. Our team at The Foot Practice can provide recommendations on shoe selection and custom orthotics to alleviate discomfort.

For existing corns, our podiatrists offer a range of treatment options tailored to your specific condition. This may involve carefully paring down the thickened skin, applying protective padding, or recommending medicated creams to soften the corn and reduce pain. In severe cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to remove the corn permanently.
