Foot Conditions
Corns &
Calluses
Thickening and hardening of foot skin localized to a specific area is called a corn, while a diffused area of thick skin is called a callus. This foot condition is caused due to excessive pressure on certain areas of your feet. If left untreated, calluses or corns may result in an infection or ulceration of the skin and can be quite painful.
