Calluses And Corns Treatment In New York City

Corns and calluses typically develop on the toes, feet, fingers, and hands. Both conditions are often confused with one another and can be distinguished by their location.

Corns generally occur at pressure points, typically on the top or side of toes, and can be very thickened and painful whereas calluses form on the weight-bearing part of feet and they are flatter, wider, and less painful.

This involves taking a detailed patient history which will include discussing what type of daily and recreational activities you perform and the types of shoes that you wear while performing such activities. Our New York City callus and Corn treatment providers will educate you on the pros and cons of different shoe gear for different activities. Wearing the appropriate shoe will significantly reduce unnecessary pressure in areas of high risk.

At Gotham Footcare, our doctors make custom-molded orthotics specifically designed to support the unique structure of your feet. Our custom orthotics will match the precise way that you walk and run, cushioning, and support your feet with each step. By controlling the way you move and the way in which your foot strikes the ground, our orthotics will help reduce and eliminate faulty biomechanical forces that cause painful corns and calluses to develop.
