FEETBUSTER FOOT CARE PRACTICE · KRAKÓW
Corns and calluses — treatment in Kraków
A painful spot on the sole or an extensive area of hard skin needs assessment. At Feetbuster, we treat corns and calluses and provide tailored care and pressure relief.
What the appointment includes
We discuss your symptoms, whether they recur, your footwear and previous treatments. We then assess the skin and pressure points. Not every hard lesion is a corn — a viral wart can look similar.
We treat hard skin, select suitable care and, where needed, pressure relief such as a custom orthosis. The scope of treatment depends on the number and size of the lesions.
Why corns and calluses return
Repeated pressure and friction encourage the formation of thickened skin. A callus usually covers a wider area, while a corn is more localised. Treating the skin alone does not change how shoes fit or how the foot is loaded.
If the changes recur, we look at your footwear and how your feet bear weight. Where appropriate, we suggest a foot assessment and insole fitting.
How to prepare for your visit
Do not cut out the lesion yourself. Bring the shoes most often associated with the pressure and any insoles you use. Tell us about plasters and products you have used, diabetes, circulation or sensation problems, and difficulties with healing.
Bleeding, discharge, severe pain or suspected infection require medical assessment. If you have diabetes or circulation problems, do not attempt to remove hard skin yourself. NHS advice on corns and calluses.
After treatment
You will receive an ongoing care plan suited to the condition of your skin. Follow-up is arranged individually. Notice whether the same shoes put pressure on the treated area again.
