Consult Podiatrist: Corns can be quite annoying, depending upon their location and friction from adjoining skin or shoe surface to cause pain. If it has affected you significantly for some time, with little help from OTC meds, a consultation with a podiatrist is worth the money and effortt. They can excise it or recommend othe rtreatment option. Feel better:)

Actually Simple.: It sounds as though you have begun the process of "treating the treatment". The use of more and more product to treat the consequences of previous failed treatments. Understand that corns are the intended results of skin being trapped between bone and shoe. The remedy is to ether remove the shoe, and its offending pressure, or remove the bone. The corn is the body's way of protecting the toe.
