Understanding Calluses

Calluses are a common foot problem experienced by many individuals. They are areas of thickened, hardened skin that develop due to repeated friction or pressure. While calluses mostly appear on the soles of the feet, they can also form on other parts such as the toes. These hard patches can cause discomfort, pain, and even affect your mobility.

Professional Callus Treatment

At The Foot Practice, we offer highly effective callus treatment options tailored to your specific needs. Our dedicated podiatrists will carefully examine your feet, assess the severity of the calluses, and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan for you.

1. Debridement

One of the most common methods used in callus treatment is debridement. This involves the gentle removal of the thickened skin layers to alleviate pain and pressure. Our podiatrists are skilled in using specialized tools to carefully and safely perform this procedure, ensuring minimal discomfort for you.

2. Moisturization and Footwear Guidance

Proper foot care goes beyond just treating calluses. Our team emphasizes the importance of moisturizing your feet regularly to keep the skin soft and supple. We also provide guidance on choosing the right footwear, as ill-fitting shoes can contribute to the development of calluses and other foot problems.

3. Orthotic Devices

In some cases, our podiatrists may recommend the use of orthotic devices, such as custom-made shoe inserts, to correct your foot mechanics and prevent calluses from recurring. These devices help distribute pressure evenly across your feet and provide additional cushioning and support.

Preventing Calluses

While our callus treatment options are highly effective, prevention is always better than cure. Here are some tips to help you prevent calluses from forming:

  • Wear comfortable shoes that properly fit your feet.
  • Use cushioned insoles to reduce pressure on certain areas.
  • Keep your feet clean and moisturized.
  • Avoid excessive friction or pressure on your feet.
