Yes, the corns are usually located on the pressure points on the feet. This includes the bottom of your feet and the sides of your feet, nearly all the area covered by your shoes.

Normal absolute lymphocyte count(ALC) ranges between 1,000/m2 to 15000/m2.
Counts between 500 to 1,000 still have intact immune function but ALC below 500 equals impaired immune function and hence an increased risk of infections. These numbers are derived from patients with HIV infections as they evolve into AIDS.

It is unlikely that you are pregnant unless you had a penetrating intercourse.
You very likely have infection of your vagine(Vaginitis).
You should first get treated for Vaginitis. It is best to see your doctor, if that is difficult, you should get hold of a medicine called Clotrimazole troches which will likely clear your infection. Pregnancy test may be useful too.
