I have a small but painful corn between the last two toes on my right foot. I go regularly to the chiropodist but after 2 weeks it grows back again!! Has anyone had any luck using an ointment like bazuka? or got any advice.

Yes i have used tge scholl hard skin remover pen with great success. It is gentler thsn bazuka, takes longer but less risk of soreness. I'd be checking your shoes though. I no longer get corns between my toes since I went into extra extra wide shoes.

My husband used to have the exact same thing. The podiatrist cut it out but also made him a spacer that fit perfectly between the toes. She made it out of something that felt like latex. He also started wearing extra wide shoes and has no problems now.

Thank you both … yes wider shoes I think are on the cards!!
