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?

View allI'm a bit worried about something. About six months ago, I got a small splinter in my foot, and I'm not sure if it ever came out. Oddly, I didn't feel any pain or discomfort for weeks, maybe even months. But just recently, I've been getting this irritating feeling, like the splinter might still be there, especially when I'm walking or even just sitting around. Could it still be inside my foot somehow? What could be causing this irritation now?
It is possible that the splinter may still be embedded in your foot, causing irritation and discomfort. I would recommend using a pair of tweezers sterilized with alcohol to carefully remove the splinter. After removing the splinter, clean the area with antiseptic solution and apply an antibiotic ointment. You can also take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen to help with any pain or inflammation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

My mom is 52 and has had foot corns on both feet since she was 35. At first, it was just a few, but now her whole foot even the upper skin and nails is covered. She can barely walk because of the pain. Is surgery the only option for this? Can foot corns be completely cured or will they keep coming back?

I've had a foot corn for over a year now that won't go away no matter what I try, even used Watnil solution without success. Is surgery the only permanent fix for this or are there other long-term solutions that actually work? I'm worried it might keep coming back even after treatment.
While surgery can be an option, it's not always the first or only choice for a persistent foot corn. Other long-term solutions, like addressing the underlying causes and using professional treatments, can also be effective.
