Corns aren’t cozy—no matter how many pumpkin lattes you sip. ☕👣
Corns and calluses are protective layers of compacted, dead skin caused by repeated friction—often from tight shoes or pressure points.
🔹 Corns typically form on the toes
🔹 Calluses show up on the soles
🔹 They can be painful, burning, or just plain annoying
✅ Moleskin and padding can provide relief
❌ Never cut them or try home remedies without a podiatrist’s guidance

Your feet do a lot for you—don’t let them suffer in silence.
