Corns and callousities are additional layers of skin produced as a body defense to protect underlying tissues against friction and pressure. The presence of a centre suggests a corn has formed. If the cause of pressure is not relieved, calluses and corns can become painful and even ulcerate. Common sites of corn and callus formation, including the ball of the foot, under the big toe, tips and tops of toes and between the toes. 
Sometimes ‘soft’ corns between toes can also form.

Our Podiatrists can provide treatment to remove and corns and callousities and also recommend interventions to offload and relieve pressure areas to help prevent corns and callousities from reforming by redistribute pressure on the foot with soft padding, deflective appliances, specialist footwear and orthotic therapy.
