I know this is a stupid question but I have a very nasty corn between my 3rd and 4th toe on my right foot. I cut it out regularly I put corn pads on it and have tried corn remover NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK OUCH! I am on my feet a good 10 hours a day and sometimes it hurts so bad I limp around and can barely walk sometimes any Ideas on how to get rid of this thing? I have been to a foot Dr. and she did the same thing I am doing and I am not going to pay all that money every week for something I can do. I try anything please help. Thanks
Any advice about corns?

I have had corns. In my case they were caused by poorly-fitting shoes: The shoes were too narrow. After I began getting shoes in wider widths - up to 4E for some of them - my corns cleared up, never to return. You may find it useful to go to an online shoe merchant who stocks wider sizes and give it a try. at the worst, you'll have a new pair of shoes.

Flexitol heel balm was recomended on a Dr.Foot web page. They said it helps soften it. They also mentioned a pumice stone to get the dead skin off. Hope that helps!

Hello Hambeak,
I've never had a corn before, but my mom and my grandma were in your. Both of them ended up having surgery on thier feet to get them removed. They were caused by them wearing high heal shoes all the time, although I don't think that would be your problem.
Corns are also caused by tight fitting shoes and socks, or your foot sliding forward in your shoes, Have you tried maybe changing the type of shoe or sock you wear?
