Re: corn toes

Corns are due to the underlying bone causing the skin above to rub in shoes. If one is wearing the wrong shoe for their foot, then sometimes changing is all that is needed. Trimming corns does not sure them. Surgery to remove the underlying bone is indicated when relief is shortlived. You might consider talking to another podiatrist.

The HealWell Night splint is designed to comfortably position the foot in a controlled amount of dorsiflexion to provide a gentle stretch to the plantar fascia and Achilles Tendon. This gentle stretch helps reduce the muscle contracture, inflammation and associated pain. It has also been clinically proven to reduce symptoms of plantar fasciitis.
