How to treat callose?

summary

The word callosum may be very strange to us, and we have never understood it. But in fact, callosum, which we usually call calluses, is usually a symptom of local flat keratin hyperplasia in hands or feet caused by long-term compression or friction. Now let's talk about how to treat callose.

How to treat callose?

First, because the callosum is a protective response to long-term mechanical friction, there is no need for treatment. For patients with large calluses and pain symptoms, they can be soaked in hot water and then peeled off part of the thick cutin with a blade and coated with exfoliating agents, such as thioxanthic salicylic acid ointment, 30% salicylic acid collodion, 0.3% retinoic acid ointment, etc.

Second: correct deformity, wear appropriate shoes with callosum, cushion with soft insole. Callosum generally does not need to be treated. Thicker ones can be soaked in hot water first and then cut off part of cuticle with a knife. The callose needs to wear soft soled shoes to let it recover. Do not use hot water to soak it and scrape it with a knife. The harder it scrapes, the bigger it scrapes.

Third: soak the calloused hands or feet in warm water for a few minutes, then apply the ointment or medicine prescribed by the doctor, and wrap them in gauze all night. After the calluses soften, gently scrape off the dead skin with a knife, and then apply deep moisturizing hand cream
