Many with the onset of heat are faced with such a nuisance as the core corn. It often appears on the soles of the feet( in the area of the heel, thumb or little finger), and causes the wearer to feel pain and discomfort.
Features of the structure
Externally, such a callus is similar to a rounded tubercle, formed by coarse skin.
In the center there is a hole in which the hat is located. Under it is the root( or as it is also called - the rod), which goes deep into the skin. It is he who creates a kind of barrier that does not allow you to quickly get rid of such a callus.
If such pathological formations appear in a child, it is better to remove the coronary callosities for an experienced specialist.
Causes of corn with a core inside the
There are two main causes that lead to the formation of corn callosity.Mechanical
When the skin is exposed to an external mechanical traumatic factor in the form of a deep splinter or small foreign bodies( eg, a pebble, etc.), the integrity of the epidermis is impaired. In response to such irritation, its cells begin to be divided intensively, leading to the formation of a defect in the coarsened region.
Viral
Often the core corn is formed as a consequence of the penetration into the body of a pathological agent - a dermatotropic virus.
Corns with a rod on the hands( in the palm, hand joints) are the result of non-observance of the elementary rules when working with tools( ignoring gloves, etc.).
In addition, if you do not get rid of wet corn in time, it is able to "transform" into a dry one, and then into a core one.
Treatment of
If core corn is detected, treatment is mandatory to avoid unwanted complications.

Cryodestruction is a procedure in which corn is treated with liquid nitrogen( 30-40 seconds).As a result, the keratinized epidermis easily peels off, and the corn is removed along with the internal contents. Today, this technique is used quite widely, because it is effective and affordable. - The removal of the core corn by a laser is performed when the specialist deals with a neglected case.

- Cutting corn( for example, with a razor) is effective only if the inner core is completely removed.
Important! !If you decide to remove corn with the core yourself, without recourse to a specialist, remember that the risk of infection is high.

Important! Use keratolytic drugs with caution, because the underlying component( salicylic acid) not only cleans the skin well from the layer of coarsened cells, but can also damage healthy tissues.
We get rid of core calluses with folk methods
Traditional medicine has in its arsenal a number of effective tools that allow to completely remove the core corn.
Acetic essence
At first it is necessary to stick a plaster adhesive( usual) gently on all sides so as not to damage healthy skin areas adjacent to the pathological focus. Then an acetic essence is collected in the pipette, and gently drips into the center of the callus - at the very top. The procedure is carried out several times, depending on the "age" and the depth of the callus.
Healing onion( or garlic)
In the fight against core corn, fresh juice or plant mush is used. It must be applied to the pathological focus, previously softened, and fixed with a bandage. If the rod "went away" is not too far away, in 12-15 procedures it is possible to completely "remove" the corn. You can also use the pulp( or juice) of aloe.
Baths made of soda
If you have a fresh core callus on the foot for treatment you can use the means available to each: a little soap and soda. To prepare the tray, take hot water and add the above components to it. After immersing the feet in the solution for 30-40 minutes. More often, 6-10 such procedures are sufficient for complete "retreat" of the callus. If there is no soda, the bath can be done by adding a dry mustard powder to the water.
Prunes
If pricked corn appeared to treat folk remedies, you can use lotion from prunes. For this, a stone is removed from it, and placed in hot milk. Then, without letting it cool, prunes are applied to the corn. As soon as it cools, take another, hot. The duration of the procedure is 30-40 minutes.
