Suggest Remedy For Corns On The Toe Region

I have what appears to be a small corn on the bottom of my foot located on the heal past the big toe, it is extremely painful and has begun to make me walk on my foot side way to prevent any pressure in that area, I also have planters phashitis, not sure on the spelling here, which only makes walking almost impossible, what can I do to get rid of this? It has been over six months and I am at my wits end with this pain.

hi there.
1. corns usually occur due to wrong foot ware or wrong life style or walking on bare foot or over weight.
2. excessive pressure on the foot will induce corns.
3. you can try salactin lotion, apply vasaline around the corn and apply salactin exactly on the lesion over night.
do it alternate day.
4. keep it away from the children.
5. tyr it for 2-3 weeks , if there are no fruitful results you can plan for corn excision by a dermatologist.
this will help you.
