Corns & Callous by Orthaheel - Podiatrist Phillip Vasyli

Podiatrist Phillip Vasyli explains how callous and corns develop from excess friction and rubbing on the foot. Corns normally develop on the upper joints of the toes, whilst callous generally develops under the sole of the foot (especially under the big toe/little toe joint and central ball of the foot). Corns and callous commonly develop when excess pronation disrupts the normal metatarsal bone relationship in the foot and this causes the toes to claw. Friction & rubbing from your footwear then causes corns and callous to develop on the tops of your toes and/or the bottom of your feet.

I have the same problem. My right root has calluses and corns on the top of each toe but my left foot only had two. I'm of Indian origin so corns and calluses look darker where the skin is thicker. I've been rubbing away dead skin for years but they just kept coming back because the friction was still there. I've been using an orthaheel for a few weeks now and with regular pedicures they are looking better each day. Maybe by next summer i'll be able to wear flipflops
