The main cause of corns and calluses is due to repeated rubbing of the skin on the shoe but deformations of the foot can also cause the appearance of corns. Indeed, an unbalanced foot or forefoot causes angular friction that promote the horn .
The friction and / or the excessive pressure on the bones of the foot produce a thickening of the horn of the feet by stimulating the manufacture of the main protein of the epidermis which is keratin .
In addition to the pain and thickening of the skin that corns and calluses cause, they can also cause a claudication, a postponement of charge responsible for disorders of the bones and joints, suppuration related to the infection of the serous bursal located under the horn or under the rubbing zone .
The formation of a horn is the result of microtrauma: repeated friction, for example. The skin stimulates the production of keratin, and thickens to protect the tissues.
It is possible to avoid the formation of corns by wearing suitable shoes as often as possible: flexible and wide enough to reduce the frequency of friction.
