Greetings- corn strips may not be the answer - its better you see a qualified dermatologist near you and get the corn pared-and the tiny root can be excised. This will prevent recurrence of the corn. Another important way to prevent recurrence of the corn is to use soft foot wear and pad the pressure areas in case you have a different style of walking and abnormal pressure in some areas. hope this helps
