Corns and calluses can become painful, especially when walking more on holidays.
Why Corns and Calluses Form
They develop due to repeated pressure or friction, often from:
- Ill-fitting sandals
- Long days of walking
- Foot deformities (bunions, hammertoes)
- Flat or high-arched feet
How to Treat Them Safely
- Moisturise daily
- File thick skin gently
- Wear cushioned shoes
- Use protective pads
Avoid chemical corn removers—they can burn the skin.
A podiatrist can safely remove hard skin and plan long-term prevention.
