Comprehensive Care for Corns and Calluses at Central Florida Foot & Ankle Institute

Corns and calluses are common foot conditions that, while not serious, can cause discomfort and pain. At Central Florida Foot & Ankle Institute, we offer expert treatment to alleviate these symptoms and prevent their recurrence, helping you maintain healthy, comfortable feet.

What Are Corns and Calluses?

Corns and calluses are thick, hardened layers of skin that develop to protect the skin from pressure and friction. Corns usually form on the tops and sides of toes, while calluses typically develop on the soles of the feet.

Symptoms of Corns and Calluses

• Rough, thickened, and flaky patches of skin
• Raised or rounded bumps (corns)
• Hardened, less sensitive areas of skin (calluses)
• Discomfort or pain under the skin

Our Approach to Treatment

We tailor our treatment to your specific needs:

• Physical Examination: To assess the severity and cause of your corns or calluses.
• Professional Trimming: Safe removal of the thickened skin.
• Custom Orthotics: To redistribute pressure away from the corns or calluses.
• Footwear Advice: Recommendations on shoes that fit well and don’t cause pressure.
• Medications: Topical treatments to soften calluses and corns.

Advanced Treatment Options

For persistent or complex cases, we may consider additional treatments, such as:

• Cryotherapy: Freezing the corn or callus to remove it.
• Surgical Intervention: In rare cases, to correct the foot deformity causing the corns or calluses.
