Corns and calluses are common foot condition, found in people of all ages, health and activity. Essentially, corns and calluses are areas of skin that are thickened by pressure. This is a thickening of the skin's natural defense mechanism. This mechanism has been developed to respond to increased pressure from an external source, as seen, for example, the pressure of a shoe. When combined with a pressure source, such as a bone is prominent, the corn or calluseven larger and potentially painful. Sources of internal pressure can vary considerably. The toes, this is usually from finger contractures called hammer toe, toe where the bone is high and has instructed the head of some of the bones rub clearly visible at the top of the toes or on the side where it is against the near the tip. In the foot, especially the balls, the prominence of the internal pressure of the end of the long bones of the foot are called metatarals.These bones can be either due to significant loss of fat in the sole of the foot or lower position of the same bone. The way a person walks the pressure on the skin of the foot. Like shoes or the floor to put pressure on the skin from the outside and the relief of the pressure exercised bone, a reaction occurs in the layer of skin. This reaction to thicken the top layer and provides a natural protection for the skin against excessive pressure. This type of skincalled hyperkeratosis. Typically, the "grain" refers to a hyperkeratosis of the toes, and "corn", describes hyperkeratosis on the sides or bottom of the foot. Unfortunately, this natural defense is a source of pain and discomfort because the skin thickens, and there is always a potential for skin under the corn or callus fester. If the pressure is too high, the tissue under the skin and begins to bruise hyperkeratosis, and eventually die. In the suffering of many peopleDuring this long process. However, some people, especially people with diabetes feel sick to their feet and not notice if this damage occurs to the skin. This can lead to serious foot injury, but the hyperkeratosis shaved regularly.
A variety of means used for the treatment of corns and calluses. Treatment can be as simple as regular professional shave the fabric, combined with the use of moisturizers and skin softeners, padding for maximum comfort and protection, andThe use of wider, deeper shoes, or more supportive. We do not recommend that people use razor blades, knives, scissors or she cut your corns and calluses. It 'easy to cut too deeply, because the positioning is also difficult to get it right. This is especially true for diabetics. Instead, you should use a pumice stone or emery board after a bath every few days, with delicate skin of the file while it softens the water. For very thick corns and calluses, diabetes, or those in pain, weWe suggest that a podiatrist to take care of hyperkeratosis, it will be much safer and more effective. The use of medicated corn is not recommended as it is an acid that can easily burn the surrounding healthy skin, if used improperly they contain. However, padding, who is a doctor and an opening for Cradle of thick skin, or gel padding on it to be acceptable. It 'very important to reduce friction and pressure on the skin, because otherwise the corn or calluseven greater. For calluses on the bottom of the foot, as you may distribute the use of prescription orthotics found the pressures during standing and walking, and this can reduce or even eliminate some callus formation. Although over-the-counter store bought inserts can be useful, it is only by a cast of the foot orthotic (not just a chase or foam impression box) and functional impairment of the foot enough to make a significant difference for the formation of callus, ascomplete examination of the foot and a prescription based on the structure of the foot is required.
The above measures can reduce the size and severity of the corn or callus, but because of sustained pressure they return again and again. Sometimes, despite the best care at home, the corn or callus, continues to cause pain and may even worsen. Permanent fix and the relief of hyperkeratosis requires surgery on a bone deformity address below, and with the removal of bones prominent internal cause(With change of shoes to relieve the external pressure) or pressure correction deformity of the foot of the post (such as contractures tip or bursitis), which also causes the internal pressure. Corns on the toes can be easily resolved if the underlying finger contracture is fixed. With a straight, there is little chance that the shoes will irritate the skin, unless the shoe is too tight to begin with. Similarly, extraction of important parts of the bones of the toes hammer, as seen in side by sideothers put pressure of two adjacent fingers. There are numerous methods for the correction of corns. These interventions are usually very successful for the relief of painful corns, even if these methods are often an unwanted result, where the pressure point is simply moved to the next bone, leading to a new callus. The procedure is different from the bone cuts to lift the bones to shorten the process and even partially in some removal of bonesevere cases.
Although corns and calluses are common problems, some people have significant problems associated with them, including pain and even injury. Treatment is usually simple, but requires regular self-care for her under control. Medical and surgical care available, and can, in cases that are resistant to the necessary care of himself.
