Brief Answer:
Surgical enucleation, lactic acid & salicylic acid solution

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

A corn is usually removed surgically by enucleation.
It is a minor procedure and can be conducted in any dermatologist clinic.
Alternatively, you can use a solution containing a combination of salicylic acid 16.7 percent and lactic acid 16.7 percent on the corn twice daily for 2 weeks.
This should also help in resolving it.

I hope to have answered your query and would be happy to answer any further queries.

Regards,
Dr. Asmeet
