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.
