Corns

Hard corns – The most typical kind of hard corns is a small region of concentrated hard skin that can be as small as a pea, usually contained within a larger area of thickened skin or callus. This could be a sign that the feet or toes aren’t working properly.

Soft corns – These are similar to hard corns in development, but they have a yellowish, rubbery appearance and develop between the toes when the skin is wet from sweat or improper drying.

Seed Corns – On the bottom of the foot, seed corns are microscopic corns that typically appear single or in clusters. They are typically painless.

Vascular / Neurovascular corns – These types of corns contain both blood vessels and nerve fibres. If cut, they may be excruciatingly painful and may bleed heavily.

Fibrous corns – These are different from other types of corns in that they develop after corns have been present for a long time and are more securely linked to the deeper tissues. They might even hurt.
