If you’ve ever noticed thickened, hard skin on your feet, you’re not alone. Corns and calluses are extremely common and usually develop as the body’s natural response to pressure or friction. Although they may look similar, they are not the same — and understanding the difference is important for choosing the right treatment and preventing pain or complications.

At our clinic, we frequently see patients who have tried to manage these conditions at home, often without success. With the right assessment and care, however, most cases can be resolved safely and comfortably.
