What are Corns and Calluses?<\/h3>\n

\"Corns<\/p>\n

Corns<\/strong> (helomas) and calluses<\/strong> (hyperkeratosis) are areas of thickened skin that develop as a protective response to constant friction or pressure. Corns are usually smaller, with a hard center, and can be painful when pressed. Calluses, on the other hand, are more extensive, less defined, and generally do not cause pain.
