Is it possible to get corns anywhere other than your hands and feet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not so fast.: The word that for years has described calloused areas of skin on the feet is corn. It is nothing more that calloused tissue usually on or between the toes. People use the word to describe all sorts of calloused tissue on the feet. I have never been one to describe calloused tissue areas on the hand as corns. Having said that, people can get calloused tissue on just about any part of their body.
