Corns on the hands and feet are prevalent in physically active people. Foot corns are not dangerous although they can be painful.
What Is Corn?
Corns are often round and painful. When exposed to moisture from sweat, they may become soft. Generally, these appear between the fourth and fifth toes.
Use Salicylic Acid
Salicylic acid dissolves the skin cells formed at the affected area. It begins to disintegrate the corn gradually by increasing the amount of moisture in that region.
Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar removes dead skin cells and softens corns. It is also antibacterial and kills any bacteria that may be lurking around the affected area.
Baking Soda
Baking soda exfoliates the corn's dead skin cells. It is an antiseptic and will keep the area infection-free.
Pumice Stone
Corn is actually dead skin and you can get rid of it by massaging the affected area of your foot or hand with a pumice stone.
Lemon Juice
Lemon juice's acidity works wonders as a natural treatment for corn. It lessens the soreness and shrinks the corn within a few days.
These are a few all-natural ways to effectively remove corn from the soles of your feet, toes, or fingers. Consult a podiatrist if the home cures don't work or if the discomfort is severe.
