I'm dealing with a really painful corn on my right foot that's making it hard to walk. I already saw a dermatologist who gave me an ointment, but unfortunately, it didn't help. I'm thinking surgery might be the next step. Could you give me some advice on where I can get this done?

I'm dealing with a corn on the corner of my foot and it's really bothering me. Who should I see to get proper treatment for this?

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.

I've been dealing with ingrown toenails for the past two years and it's getting really painful. Who should I see for toenail removal surgery, how long does it take to recover, and what's the usual cost for this procedure

For an ingrown toenail that's been problematic for two years and is now painful, you should consult a podiatrist or a general surgeon for toenail removal surgery. Recovery can take four to six weeks if part of the nail is removed, and 10 to 12 weeks if the entire nail is removed. The cost of the procedure can range from ‚Çπ2,500 to ‚Çπ15,000 in India
