Why Creams and Home Remedies Aren't Enough
Many believe that applying salicylic acid, a pumice stone or a corn cream helps remove corns & calluses—but the reality is they don't even touch the root cause. The most common reason for corns forming is because of the pressure point in the gait, footwear or a toe alignment. If you treat the surface only, it will come back again soon. A proper corn treatment begins with finding why the pressure keeps building up, not just filling it down.

Foot Corn Treatment in Kolkata — What Happens in a CuraFoot Clinic
A focused clinical visit to assess the cause, treat the affected skin and help reduce recurring pressure.
Assessment
Your podiatrist examines the corn or callus, checks your gait and footwear, and identifies the pressure point causing it.
Painless removal
The thickened, dead skin is carefully pared away using a sterile podiatric technique. You'll feel pressure, not pain.
Insole & prevention advice
Custom offloading insoles or footwear guidance help redistribute pressure so the corn is less likely to return.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is corn removal painful?
No. CuraFoot uses a podiatric technique that removes thickened dead skin. Most patients feel pressure rather than pain and can walk comfortably afterwards.
How long does treatment take?
A typical visit takes 30–45 minutes, including assessment, removal, and insole or prevention advice.
Will the corn come back?
Corns and calluses often return if the underlying pressure is not addressed. A podiatrist assessment and suitable offloading can help reduce recurrence.
What is the difference between a corn and a callus?
A corn is small and concentrated with a hard core, usually on the toes. A callus is broader and commonly occurs on the sole or heel.
Is it covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on your individual policy and whether the treatment is classified as medically necessary.
Do I need a referral?
No referral is required. You can book directly for corn and callus treatment at CuraFoot.
