Foot corn from past 3 mn

2016-01-24 13:32:37
I have a foot corn from last 2-3 months. I visit a general doctor and he said you need to visit 3-4 times alternative days. Is that much time needed for removal of corn. He advised to use corn caps also.

The best way to remove corn is corn enucleation surgery where it is removed till the root in a cone shaped manner.This prevents recurrence of corn and just one time surgery is needed.
