1, conservative treatment
The corns are relatively small, just formed soon, can be eliminated slowly through conservative treatment, there are two kinds of conservative treatment of corns.
1. When there is obvious pressure pain in the corns, use a knife to remove the surface of the stratum corneum, relieve the pressure pain, and casually apply a little bit of low-concentration salicylic acid, and after a few times can fall off on their own.
2. Use moxa sticks, incense sticks, etc. to ignite, close to the corns to burn, feel the pain that is far away, repeated many times to eliminate corns.
2, corrosive treatment
Now there are many corrosive drugs on the market, to the corns cream for example, corns cream is actually a corrosive drug, its main ingredient is salicylic acid, salicylic acid, ice, etc., has a certain corrosive effect, can layer progressive elimination of subcutaneous corns, and finally corns fall off.
3, physical therapy
Corns can be cured by physical therapy, the main principle is to stimulate the corns through the light, heat, cold, etc., so that the corns of the deep cellular tissues are destroyed, inactivated, and after a few days will fall off on their own. Commonly used methods are: electrocautery, carbon dioxide laser cauterization, X-ray irradiation.
4, surgical treatment
The corns are too large, too deep under the skin, whether conservative treatment or corrosive treatment can not reach its root, this corns need to be operated, this type of surgery is a small shell surgery, even without anesthesia can be completed, along the edge of the corns cut a ring-shaped incision, the scalpel can be deep into the root of the corns to remove deep The scalpel can go deep into the root of the corns to remove the deep corns tissue to cure the corns.
5, corns preventive measures
Cornea belongs to the epidermis of the keratin inward hyperplasia formation, therefore, the formation of this keratin layer is completely avoidable.
1. Do not wear tight and narrow shoes, requiring the toes to be able to move freely within the shoe and the instep to be free of pressure and pain.
2. If you have foot bone deformity disease, timely treatment, to avoid excessive friction at the deformed bone caused by corns.
6, corns notes
1, away from sharp instruments: must resist the use of razors, scissors or other sharp instruments to cut corns. Because this can cause infection and worse. Especially people with diabetes should never deal with foot disorders on their own.
2, local lining: this method can prevent calluses on the feet from turning into corns. The easiest way is to remove the pressure on the callus, you can use gauze or skimmed cotton laid on the callus, and then covered with a layer of thick cloth on top. It is recommended that these coverings be removed every night and during baths so that the skin can breathe and to prevent the buildup of excess moisture within the pads. When removing the cloth locally, keep the skin on the bottom of the foot taut and slowly remove the cloth by pulling against the heel. If you move too quickly or in the wrong direction, you may tear the skin of the foot.
3, early action to prevent the generation of corns: If the local pressure of the foot callus persists, then it will become thicker and thicker. Once a hard core appears inside, then it develops into a corns. It is advisable to take action before the corns initially take shape. At that stage, a corns is just a small localized circle of hardened skin that rarely causes pain. Early massage of the localized skin with lanolin will soften the corns and reduce its response to pressure, followed by localized pressure relief with a liner.
4, do not use medicated pads: not recommended to use corns cream or any other over-the-counter medications. They are simply acids that cannot distinguish between corns, calluses and normal skin. Although they can deal with corns and calluses, they can also erode normal skin, causing burns and even ulcers. If you must use corns creams or other over-the-counter salicylic acid-based products, such as some liquid, ointment or disk preparations, then apply the medication only to the affected area and be sure to avoid injuring the surrounding skin. For example, when treating a corns, use a circular, non-medicated liner to separate the normal skin around the corns. Do not use any one medication more often than twice a week, and also visit your doctor if there is no improvement within two weeks of use.
5. Soak your feet: Pain from corns can also come from mucus sac cavities located in the space between the bone and the corns, which can cause pain once they become inflamed or increase in size. Soak your feet in a mixture of laxative salt and hot water for temporary pain relief. This will cause the mucus sacs to shrink, taking pressure off the surrounding nerve tissue. But if you continue to wear shoes that don't fit properly, these mucus sacs will immediately swell again and cause pain.
