Corns, Calluses and Cracked Heels

 

Corns, Calluses and Ingrown Toe Nails

The qualified team of podiatrists at Beyond Podiatry in Newcastle will be able to treat and determine the cause of your corns and calluses and suggest ways to prevent them from redeveloping on the foot.

Corns and Calluses

  • Corns and calluses are caused by poor fitting footwear and/or uneven walking patterns due to incorrect foot structure
  • Corns and calluses are gently trimmed back using a scalpel. This is a painless treatment

Cracked Heels

  • Cracked heels are a build-up of hard skin, which crack due to pressure from walking and standing
  • The Podiatrist can gently remove the hard skin
  • The treatment is painless and the heels feel soft and smooth
