Corns & Calluses

Corns & Calluses Treatment in Northwest Arkansas

Relieve pressure. Restore comfort. Protect your feet.

Thick, hardened patches of skin — like corns and calluses —are your body’s natural response to repeated friction or pressure. But when they become painful, they can turn every step into a distraction.

At Arkansas Foot & Ankle Specialists, we treat corns and calluses every day. Our goal is simple: relieve discomfort, restore healthy skin, and prevent the problem from coming back — so you can move comfortably and confidently.

What Causes Corns & Calluses

These skin build-ups form when the foot is exposed to consistent rubbing or pressure. Common causes include:

Tight or ill-fitting footwear
Foot structure issues such as hammertoes or bunions
High-impact or repetitive activities
Areas of abnormal weight-bearing

How We Treat Corns & Calluses

Step 1: Personalized Evaluation

We assess the thickened skin, check your footwear and foot mechanics, and confirm whether the spot is a corn, callus, or something similar (like a wart).

Step 2: Targeted Treatment Options

Your treatment may include:

Safe, gentle reduction of hardened skin in-office
Protective padding or support to reduce pressure points
Footwear guidance to minimize friction
Home care instructions such as soaking, filing, and moisturizing
Special precautions for patients with diabetes or circulation issues

Preventing Recurrence

We help you keep the problem from returning by recommending:

Shoes with a roomy toe box and proper cushioning
Padding or off-loading solutions for pressure areas
A simple skin-care routine to manage buildup
