Corns are a common example of avoidable foot pain. Corns often occur on the top of the toes where there is pressure from the shoes. Corns, also called helomas, are thickened areas of skin that form in response to excessive pressure and friction. They form to protect the skin and the structures beneath it from damage or injury. Corns are usually hard and circular, with a waxy or translucent center. They may become painful or ulcerated in response to persistent friction.
