is it a corn
by kitachica, Oct 03, 2009 10:39AM
i think i have a corn on my foot but its not on the top of my foot its on the bottom. I dont think its a callus because it has a small hole in it and a red ring around the outside of it. it hurts and it has been on my foot for almost 3 months now, and ive tried corn, callus, wart, medicine but it only gets worse. What should i do

get this shaved and evaluated by a podiatrist. it may be a wart, porokeratoma, or foreign body callus inclusion. since home remedies aren't helping, seek professional help
