Professional Callus Removal Mullingar
What Are Foot Calluses ?
Foot Calluses are hard, thickened areas of skin that are generally not painful and don’t require treatment unless they are uncomfortable, painful, or limit your ability to comfortably wear shoes. This hardened skin is the body’s way of protecting itself from diffuse pressure or friction. Poorly fitted or worn footwear is a common cause. Some people with dry skin are predisposed to developing callus. If you find that you have calluses, and they are painful or limit your ability to wear shoes, you should see a podiatrist.
Why do foot Calluses need to be removed ?
If you’re dealing with corns or calluses, it’s important to take care of them before they get worse. Untreated calluses can grow in size and become painful, making it difficult to walk. In some cases, corn or calluses infections may require medical or surgical treatment. By removing calluses, you can help prevent these problems and keep your feet healthy.
How Do You Remove the Foot Calluses ?
Here at our clinic, our podiatrists will work to get rid of your corns or calluses through a combination of treatments that involve removing the hard skin. Not only will they remove the corns and calluses, but they will also address the underlying problem that caused them in the first place. In addition, our clinicians will assess your gait to look for any abnormalities that might be causing uneven pressure along the foot. To help redistribute weight more evenly, they may use insoles or cushioning.
