What you ought to know about Callus - Frequently Asked Questions

Medically Reviewed by The Medindia Medical Review Team on Sep 10, 2015


Frequently Asked Questions

1. Which doctor should I consult for callus?

You should consult your podiatrist for treatment of the callus. You should also consult your physician if you suffer from diabetes.


2. Will the callus come back once it is treated?

A callus will recur after treatment if the factors that caused the callus in the first place are not removed. For example, if you wear ill-fitting shoes which caused the callus, and you continue to wear the same shoes after the treatment, the callus is likely to recur. Therefore, it is extremely necessary to treat the underlying cause as well.
