Foot callus can be a source of pain and discomfort, limiting your mobility and quality of life. At Pied Confort,, we understand the importance of taking care of your feet and treating problems such as calluses and corns quickly. Don't let foot pain hold you back any longer.
The Risks of Ignoring Foot Calluses and Plantar Corns
Ignoring a foot callus can lead to long-term complications. These accumulations of hardened skin can thicken and form painful bumps. Plantar corns, caused by repetitive rubbing or bony deformities, can also develop if the callus is not treated in time. The pain can become chronic and affect your ability to walk and perform your daily activities.
Foot calluses and corns can also cause a change in your gait as you unconsciously try to relieve pain by avoiding putting weight on the affected areas. This change in gait can in turn cause pain in other parts of the body, such as the knees, hips, and back. It is therefore crucial to treat a foot callus and plantar corn as soon as they appear to avoid these long-term complications.
The Importance of Regular Foot Check-ups
Prevention is essential to maintain the health of your feet. Regular check-ups with your podiatrist at Pied Confort can help identify potential problems before they become serious. Our team of experienced podiatrists is here to effectively diagnose and treat a foot callus. We can monitor the appearance of calluses, plantar corns, and other foot conditions. By intervening early, we can prevent these problems from worsening and becoming chronic.
During your regular visits, your podiatrist will carefully examine your feet, including areas that are difficult to see, such as the sole. We use specialized tools to detect signs of calluses, corns, and other skin problems. We will also provide you with personalized advice on at-home foot care, such as how to wash and moisturize your feet properly, as well as how to choose appropriate footwear.
Treatments and Prevention of Foot Callus
Several over-the-counter treatments can relieve the pain caused by calluses and corns, but they should be used cautiously. These products, especially those that are keratolytic, can be harmful to the health of diabetics and the elderly. Before using these products, consult with your podiatrist at Pied Confort who can safely and painlessly treat and eliminate a foot callus and plantar corn after an accurate diagnosis.
Your podiatrist will use debridement techniques to remove hardened skin and calluses gently. We can also prescribe moisturizing creams and special dressings to promote skin healing and prevent the recurrence of calluses. In some cases, we may recommend filler injections to relieve pressure on painful areas.
