I have corn on my toe and two small dots but they don't pain yet.i have had surgery for my left foot but i want the removal of corn without surgery now?

Palliative care: Any skilled podiatrist can remove your corn without bone surgery painlessly. Unfortunately, it will return after some time. This can be done repeatedly until it comes back so quickly that you opt for surgery- which may be years until it worsens. I do not recommend corn plasters as they burn the skin and are fraught with complications.
