A member asked:
When would it be necessary for a surgical corn removal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Corns are formed from a build-up of dead skin cells that create thick, hardened areas on your feet. They can be removed by scraping the hard skin with a corn remover. Surgical treatment of underlying bony deformities such as hammer toe and bunions may be required to prevent the Corn's from coming back. Talk to a Podiatrist about your specific situation.
