Product Information

Corns are a cone shape of hard skin caused by pressure and friction which could be caused by ill fitting footwear, changes in foot structure which in turn can affect your gait (the way you walk) or bony deformities. They can be particularly painful and limit walking and footwear. But be aware Step 2: File the callus with a pumice stone or foot file.– Once the callus is softened, you can file it with a pumice stone. Dip the pumice stone in water and then gently remove the dead skin by circular or sideways motions. You can also use a foot file as an exfoliating tool. Pay attention not to remove too much skin as this might cause bleeding and infection. Instead, remove only small amounts and repeat the action regularly until the callus disappears. This is most often achieved by simply changing to more comfortable footwear or using padding (moleskin or adhesive pads available in pharmacies) until new shoes are broken in. In some cases, insoles might help. Treatments can help resolve the corn in around 2-4 weeks, but generally, they return if the source of pressure causing it remains. Therefore, it is important to find the source of the pressure and avoid it. Even if you are wearing well-fitted and adapted footwear, repetitive actions, such as exercise or walking and standing at work might cause corns. Professions with a high risk of developing corns include postal workers, nurses and waiters/waitresses.

Dip the pumice stone in the water and then gently remove the dead skin by circular or sideways motions.Pay attention to your feet! Take care of any irritation or pain directly and if necessary see a foot specialist regularly. Scraping – Trimming by scraping is generally only necessary for the removal of large painful corns. Scraping should be performed by a foot specialist. If you would like to trim your corn yourself you can file it. Corns and calluses: the Compeed ® plaster maintains an environment which removes the corn by moisturizing and softening it and helps relieve pain. Avoid wearing ill-fitting shoes where possible. Try not to wear shoes that are too tight, too loose, too high or have badly placed seams. Types of shoes such as high heels, pointed-toe heels and high arched boots are generally not well adapted for wearing for long periods of time. Please note, that if you have insensitive skin due to poor circulation, diabetes or nerve damage, you should consult a chiropodist before treatment.

Blisters: at the first signs of irritation or blister formation, the Compeed ® blister plaster will help relieve the pain due to friction thanks to its cushioning effect. Cold sores: the Compeed ® discreet patch treats cold sores throughout all stages of development to facilitate healing and resolution.Use heel pads or soft insoles. If you have to stand or walk a lot due to your professional activities, this might help you to relieve the pressure on your feet. Blisters: Compeed ® specialist plasters will help relieve the pain caused by the blister and help the skin heal. Blisters: at the first signs of irritation or blister formation, the Compeed ® blister cushion will relieve the pain due to friction thanks to its cushioning effect. Non-prescription treatments and remedies – These treatments and remedies are usually based on cushioning the corn, rather than removing the corn. Compeed Corn Plasters, for example, contain hydrocolloid technology, which provides pain relief by cushioning, protects your corn from further rubbing and at the same time moisturises the area around your corn, helping to remove it.
