Foot corn removal is an effective option for treating unsightly and painful corns. We offer a variety of treatments to remove your corns. If more aggressive treatment is necessary, Dr. Petkov, your podiatrist in NJ, can perform corn removal surgery at our podiatry center, just a half-hour away from NYC. Call today for an evaluation.
Similar to calluses, corns are made up of hard skin that forms on the bony points of your feet. Unlike calluses, corns also can appear between your toes. They gradually become painful, making wearing tight shoes extremely uncomfortable.

According to the American Podiatric Medical Association, approximately 5% of Americans suffer from foot corn pain every year. If your corns have become painful and unsightly, find a New Jersey foot doctor to remove them. Dr. Velimir Petkov is board-qualified in foot surgery by the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery.
Modern podiatry has several treatment therapies that entail non-invasive and minimally invasive techniques to make your corns disappear. If you need foot corn removal surgery, visit the specialists at Premier Podiatry in Passaic County, New Jersey.
How Do Corns Form?
Corns form over time as the skin becomes irritated and attempts to protect your foot by hardening its surface. This callused skin develops as a result of pressure and friction from ill-fitting or unsupportive shoes. As a result, you will experience pain, soreness, swelling, redness, and discomfort. You may have rough, hardened, raised bumps on your skin, or waxy or dry skin that flakes off regularly. Although each corn on your foot seems to be unique, they often form in one of three ways:

• Small seed corns often occur along the bottom of your feet. Round in shape, they resemble dead skin.
• Soft corns are tender to the touch. Their outer layer usually appears thin and smooth with a white or gray tone. They generally appear between your toes and typically feel rubbery.
• Hard corns are the most common. Usually appearing on the top of your toes or the side of your little toe, hard corns are dense patches of skin that grow thicker over time.

Calluses and corns are not the same things. Calluses are usually not painful. They appear on your feet’s weight-bearing areas. Corns form on non-weight-bearing areas of the foot, such as between your toes. Corns can often be mistaken for cysts or warts. Corns may also be confused with cysts or warts. Ask your podiatrist to make the correct diagnosis.
