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 an issue where I've got a corn on my left foot, and it's filled with pus. It's not really painful, but there's pus coming out, and I'm worried it might get infected. This corn popped up in the same spot where I previously had one removed by a doctor. I'm really hoping to avoid another surgery. Could you recommend an ointment or something to help with the infection? Appreciate your advice.

Apply a topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or Bacitracin to the infected corn to help reduce the chance of a more serious infection.

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
