Corns

Hi all, just looking for some recommendations. I have been trying to get rid of a painful corn on the side of my little toe but it's stubborn !

Anyone know of anything really good I can use ? Really don't want to go to a chiropodist (sp) just yet.

Thanks x

Advice from a chiropodist (me)is go and see a chiropodist/Podiatrist!
The only useful things you could buy over the counter are shields/protectors which won�t get rid of the corn. They will however stop the pain when shoes are on.Stay well away from carnation corn caps as they have strong salicylic acid in them which just end up burning the skin and making the whole area sore.
If you want to try something yourself, use an emery board or foot file to gently rub the hard skin away then an intensive moisturiser to soften.

Just go the chiropodist. By time you've wasted money on the products that don't work you've covered their fee.

My local one is about �25. Best money I've spent. 10 minutes later all done and instant relief.
