You can use over-the-counter medications like salicylic acid (found in products like Compound W or Dr. Scholl's Corn Removers) to treat foot corns. Apply the medication as directed on the package, usually once daily. Make sure to follow the instructions carefully for best results. The appropriate specialist for this ailment would be a Dermatologist.
