How to treat plantar corns

summary

Corns on the sole of the foot is a common disease in our life, but it has a great impact on our life. Corns are caused by long-term friction and compression cone-shaped cuticle thickening, there is a central core of keratin, the tip deep into the skin, the base exposed to the outside. More common in young people, prone to plantar and toe, if the corns tip compression nerve endings, then walking pain. Treatment: laser cauterization can be carried out in the hospital during treatment. If all kinds of methods are invalid, it is feasible to remove corns. Prevention: to prevent corns, the first thing is to correct foot deformity, wear loose, appropriate size shoes, reduce local friction and compression. How to treat plantar corns? Let's talk about it.

How to treat plantar corns

First, it is also called pathological overview. Corns are conical cornlike keratinocytes that occur in the plantar or toe due to long-term compression or friction. For the treatment of epidemic characteristics and pathogenesis, hot water should be used to soften the affected area, remove the cuticle on the surface, protect the surrounding area and expose the corns, and then external application of various strong exfoliating agents, such as commercially available chicken eye ointment and 15% rysuoxin lactate ointment. 0.3% tretinoin ointment, 10% silver nitrate solution, etc. were repeated every few days until the tip was dug out.

Second: if there is no infection, the corns can be removed by excavation. The method is to make a circular incision with a sharp scalpel along the edge of horny hypertrophy, clamp it with toothed tweezers, peel off the upper layer of the transparent band, and dig out the corns. After digging out, there was no pain in walking immediately, and no pain or hair for at least 2 months. If reoccurrence can dig again, general 1-2 times, individual 5-6 times can be cured. The above methods can be combined with external application. The prevention should wear appropriate and soft shoes, or use a small piece of sponge pad with holes to protect the part from pressure.

Third: the clinical manifestation of corns is the conical keratin plug embedded in the skin, which is generally larger or larger from the needle to the soybean, with smooth surface and flat or slightly raised skin surface, light yellow or dark yellow, translucent. The tip of the cone extends into the skin in a wedge shape, and the bottom surface is flat and exposed outside the skin. If the cutin on the surface is removed by force, a hard needle like cutin embolism can be seen in the center, and there is a transparent light yellow ring around it, which is in the shape of corns. Most of them are 1-2, occasionally multiple, generally not easy to self-healing, if remove pathogenic factors.

matters needing attention

Many people think that corns are not a disease and do not need treatment. However, after long-term friction and compression, the corns on the sole of the foot will gradually become bigger and harder, and it will be more difficult to remove or cure them later. Therefore, early detection and early treatment are necessary.
