@rukhsar090 ive had mine tooo..
whats the sticky patch? i might need to find one…
You will only get rid of the corn’s surface.If it’s a deep corn, it will need digging out or the pain will persist.Now most of my female patients would rather suffer the corn than change their footware for a wider and deeper toe box.Having said that,the shoe manufacturers dont help because they are only intersted in making shoe’s that will sell (natrually).They dont give a dam about foot health.Vanity killed the cat!!
@iesha12 Im sorry I dont know.
@agaragarlove hmmm that sound interesting what is the name of it?
I got a corn and my mom gave me this sticky patch and I put it on with a band-aid, and a few days later the skin started to fall of. I repeated this every few weeks, and I slept one night with a very itchy corn. I scratched it so hard a tiny piece of it came off. The next day when I slept, it came off by its self. Now I am so happy I have no more corns. I still repeat this though because little skins from the corn is still there.
hi doc….. how r u?
actually i ran a thorn long before and some of the thorn parts left inside my foot, and i don’t know that until now. now it seems like a black dot beneath the skin when i try to cut and pick em up nothing is there. few days later the black dot again appears but this time even bigger. what would be this thing called as? and whats the solution? now iam using corn removal bandage, will it cure my problem? plz reply me doc…. thank u….
i have found the stuff u buy at a chemist it is a medicated pad or cream that u use for 4 days and it eats around the corn and u can just rip the corn off.
yeah it does about a few days.
It always hurts like hell, I rub the corn almost completely away but it either comes back or if I rub to much is starts to bleed and comes back anyways.
I’ve tried the Pumice stone but I don’t really know when to stop scrubbing it with the Pumice stone. The Corn’s on the bottom of my foot and I don’t know how to get rid of it completely; All I know is that I have to scrub it w/ my Pumice Stone. Elaborate a little more please?
I have one below my big toe, on the other foot I have one on my big toe, and another on the low side next to my pinkie toe. My mom can’t tell if they’re warts or corns. How can I tell the difference? I have an Important volley ball game this week, and they are VERY painful,so I need a way to get rid of them quickly, and so the pain will fade in a few days.
i had my corns removed but i still can’t wear sandles as i have unsightly feet, the corns are lighter than my natural skin so they look odd, i have dark skin and no matter what i do the corn skin is still harder and lighter, CAN ANYONE HELP PLEASE.

I’ve tried rubbing it with the pumice stone and it made it worse
I run a lot and have got this painful corn on the side of my foot. Your advise seems like a much less painful remedy than using a razor blade as others on youtube had suggested. I really hope this works. thanks!
at a drug store or grocery store
right but after you remove the corn does the discoloration return back to normal?
I’ve got a corn on the outside of my foot and its rather uncomfortable.
I’ll try your advice too.
Cheers
how effective is it?
It wont work as much sadly. i have had my corns for soo long ! they’re the worst things ever and im also a flat footed person! double suffering ! i try using medication called scholl its a liquid in a small bottle it kinda helps !
i’m really glad you posted this video, i managed to get corns on both my pinkie toes last summer and even though i’ve had my feet in uggs all winter they didn’t decrease very much at all.
i’m going to try your advice today.
Hello, I have what really looks like a corn on my hand. Is it a corn even if its on my hand? also does doing the exact same steps remove it?
