Corn On Pinky Toes, White Discoloration. What Can I Do?
I am an African American girl who has a corn on each of my pinky toes. I had got them at a young age from my parents buying shoes that are too small, now that I am in high school, I would like to wear sandals and etc but Im discouraged because of the corns and the white discoloration they have (My skin is brown) which isn't a good look.

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
Due to occlusion caused by ill fitted shoes, you might have developed calluses over your little toe.
In such cases regular paring of the area, use of salicylic acid ointment and use of moisturising creams with urea and lactic acid helps.
Hope that answered your query.
Take care
