Mar 17, 2024

Welcome to The Foot Practice, where we specialize in providing top-notch foot care and podiatry services in the field of Health & Medical.

Understanding Leg Corn

Leg corn, also known as a callus, is a common condition that affects many individuals. It typically develops due to continuous pressure or friction on a specific area of the skin, often caused by wearing ill-fitting shoes or engaging in activities that put repetitive stress on the feet.

Symptoms of Leg Corn

The symptoms of leg corn may include:

  • Pain or tenderness in the affected area
  • Thickened, hardened skin on the foot
  • Yellowish or discolored appearance of the area
  • Difficulty walking or standing comfortably

Treatment Options

At The Foot Practice, we offer a range of effective treatment options for leg corn to provide relief and promote healing.

1. Padding and Orthotics

Customized padding or orthotic inserts can help reduce pressure on the affected area and prevent further friction, aiding in the healing process.

2. Debridement

Our skilled podiatrists can perform debridement to carefully remove the thickened skin and corn, allowing for new, healthier skin to emerge.

3. Medicated Creams

We may recommend the use of medicated creams containing keratolytic agents to help soften and exfoliate the corn, promoting faster healing.

4. Proper Footwear

Our experts can provide guidance on selecting appropriate footwear that fits well and does not exacerbate the condition, ensuring ongoing comfort and support for your feet.

5. Preventive Care

Along with treating the existing leg corn, we also focus on prevention strategies to avoid recurrence, such as regular foot inspections and maintenance.
