Painful corns can impact your life in more ways than you might realize. They can limit your choice of footwear, forcing you to avoid stylish shoes that you love. The constant pain can make walking a challenge, discouraging you from enjoying activities that require you to be on your feet, such as shopping, traveling, or simply taking a walk in the park. Over time, the ongoing discomfort can lead to frustration and negatively affect your mood and quality of life.
Ignoring painful corns can lead to more severe problems. Corns can grow larger and deeper, causing increased pain and discomfort. If left untreated, they may lead to ulcers or infections, especially in individuals with diabetes or poor circulation. Additionally, continuing to walk or stand in a way that avoids putting pressure on the corn can lead to other foot and joint problems due to altered gait patterns.
At LR Podiatry, we offer a range of effective treatments to relieve the pain of corns and prevent them from recurring. One of our innovative solutions is the use of Curacorn dermal fillers, a specialised treatment designed to cushion and protect the areas of your feet prone to corns.
Our treatment options include:
For immediate relief, we can safely remove the corn using specialised instruments, reducing pain and discomfort on the spot. Regular maintenance appointments can help keep pain at bay.
This advanced treatment involves injecting a soft, cushioning gel into the areas around the corn, providing immediate pain relief by reducing pressure and friction. Curacorn fillers offer a longer-lasting solution to painful corns, allowing you to walk comfortably and wear your favourite shoes without pain.
We provide personalised recommendations for footwear that can help reduce pressure on your feet, preventing the formation of new corns.
Custom orthotic devices can redistribute pressure across your feet, minimizing the development of corns and other painful conditions.
Our approach is to provide both immediate relief and long-term solutions, ensuring that you can walk comfortably and confidently.
