Nature Has The Cure for Various Foot Ailments

corns-onthe-feet.jpg Advocates of nature know that Mother Earth provides a solution for many physical ailments, including foot problems. For example, to treat corns on your feet, submerge bark from a willow tree in warm water for about thirty minutes. After the solution is created, soak your feet inside to treat the corns.  

Do ingrown toenails happen to be the problem? Soak your feet in a mixture of grinded acorns and water in order to create a surprisingly effective treatment for ingrown toenails. If you have blisters or lesions, apply crushed plantains or yarrow to the affected area. After applying the plantains or yarrow, cover your wound with a bandage.

Corns can create a lot of difficulty. If you have foot corns and nature isn’t working out for you, see podiatrist Dr. Mayer Salama, D.P.M. of Salama Foot Care. Dr. Salama can treat your foot and ankle needs.

Corns: What are they? And how do you get rid of them?

Corns can be described as areas of the skin that have thickened to the point of becoming painful or irritating. They are often layers and layers of the skin that have become dry and rough, and are normally smaller than calluses.

Ways to Prevent Corns

There are many ways to get rid of painful corns such as wearing:
- Well-fitting socks
- Comfortable shoes that are not tight around your foot
- Shoes that offer support

Treating Corns

Treating corns involves removing the dead skin that has built up in the specific area of the foot. Salicylic acid can help in getting rid of these corns because it dissolves keratin, which is the protein that makes up a good majority of corns. Podiatrists recommend that people with diabetes not use salicylic acid but should consult with their podiatrist regarding the treatment of corns.
