Corns and Calluses
Corns and calluses are thickened, hardened skin layers caused by repeated pressure or friction. Typically found on feet or hands, corns and calluses can become painful if left untreated. Corns are smaller and deeper, often forming on toes, whereas calluses are larger and more superficial, commonly appearing on the soles.
