Is there a podiatric treatment for recurring corns?
Corns are typically the result of excessive pressure that can be caused by improperly fitting footwear or a bony prominence pressing the skin from beneath. Treatment varies depending on the cause and can include orthotics to relieve pressure caused by footwear and, in some cases, surgery to reshape bone prominences that can cause pressure from within the foot.
