Can cause corns...: Corns are callouses on the toes and are caused mainly by shoe irritation over a period of time. They can just be trimmed by a podiatrist, but will usually come back. The real cause is bony enlargement or malpositioning of the toe. There is a real simple surgery to smooth off the underlying bone and the corn should go away permanently. You can also have your shoes stretched or wear wider shoes.

It could: Blisters and bruised corns can lead to infection, and the pain caused by them may alter your walking and ability to wear proper shoes. See a podiatrist for help.
