How do you get rid of corns?

A corn is a small area of of thickened skin on a toe as a result of excess pressure, normally from ill fitting footware.\nIt is the body's natural defense to prevent skin breakdown in much the same way callus' develop on the hands etc.\nTreatment includes the use of spongy rings or corn pads to relieve pressure from the area.\nEnsuring correctly fitting shoes are worn will prevent corns from developing but if they are causing problems they can be removed by a Chiropodist.\n\nRegards, Chris.

DON'T do what the people before me have told you.\n\nI don't know what your reasons are for wanting to get rid of them but that's your business.  Use 2,4 -D.  You can usually buy this at your local garden supply store.\n\nFollow the label!\n\nDo not cut the trees first (or ever) it must be applied to the foliage and it needs time (at least 3 weeks) to be absorbed.

Cut out all carbs for a few weeks. No bread, potatoes, corn, rice, cereal, pasta, fruit, tomatoes, beans (except green beans) and peas. Lots of meat and green vegs. Drink 8 glasses of water a day. Walk every day. Get a friend to diet and exercise with you

Treatment for corns\nProperly fitting shoes of soft leather and proper shape should be worn. Spongelike materials that absorb energy and thus prevent friction are available for lining shoes or bandaging the area of the foot being abraded. Local application of a keratolytic agent is effective for removal of the corn. Corn pads are used to relieve pressure. A podiatrist may remove corns with a scalpel. Patients with diabetes or a circulatory condition who have corns need special care to prevent foot infections.\n\nIt may take a while for the patch to work.  Turning white is a sign it is working.  If you do not feel that the patch is working properly go see your doctor.

there can be fungicides, pesticides and maybe herbicides on the corn.  burning it can release fumes.  however, feed corn should be ok to burn.  after all, it's meant to be eaten.  \n\nmy roundup ready corn for planting is treated with a pesticide.  it's red.

the guy above is right, corn. If you really want to drive them crazy make a corn meal dough with cornmeal,  boiling water and a dash of vanilla extract.

no problem, it's water soluble - just let the warm water run. if you ate a bunch of corn then you might have to push the kernels around to seperate them enough to go down the drain (in eastern europe the "toilets" are only a hole in the floor that you squat over - that isn't a joke) - p.s. you're my kinda woman

The best thing for removing a fat or oil stain -- or the oily component of a more complex stain such as salad dressing or gravy (once it's dry) -- is to rub cornstarch (or cornstarch powder, or even talcum powder) into the stain , let it sit for at least 20 minutes, and then brush it off with a dry washcloth or soft dry brush. You may need to repeat the treatment several times to fully remove the fat. It works especially well on silk and wool. So well, in fact, that further washing (or dry cleaning) is not needed.
