Post-Care: Corn Removal

Normal

  • A scab forms and falls off by itself (5 to 10 days)

Do

  • Clean the area once or twice a day with saline or antiseptic, as advised. Pat dry
  • Apply Fuber M or Fusidic acid cream twice a day (5 to 7 days, or as prescribed)
  • Cover with a soft bandage, especially on the feet. Change it daily or when wet or dirty
  • Wear comfortable, open-toe or cushioned shoes
  • For mild pain: take Dolo 650 or a pain reliever as advised. Use a cold compress for swelling
  • Come for your follow-up appointment

Avoid

  • Peeling or scratching the scab
  • Tight shoes or walking barefoot
  • Soaking the feet in a bathtub or pool (until fully healed)
