Hello there...I can understand your concern. You must understand that corn are present very deep into the skin. So applying corn caps will only remove superficial layer. It won't help much. Best way to get it paired by a dermatologist and then get cryotherapy done. Some surgeons might suggest excision. But remember chances of recurrences are high even after excision. So it's upto you to decide. Kindly consult a dermatologist for further evaluation.
