POV: you’ve been walking on what feels like a tiny pebble for MONTHS… and it was a corn. 👣

Painful corn removal has to be one of the most satisfying treatments. A patient can walk in hobbling with foot pain and leave with almost instant relief.

Corns are small areas of concentrated hard skin caused by pressure and friction, and despite their size, they can be ridiculously painful.

The best bit? Corn removal shouldn’t be painful.

Will it come back? Maybe. That’s why we don’t just remove the corn, we look at WHY it developed in the first place. Footwear, pressure points, your walking pattern and repeated friction can all play a part.

Please don’t spend years putting up with it. I’ve seen people stop walking, running and fully enjoying holidays because of one tiny painful corn.

Tiny bit of skin. HUGE amount of pain. Instant relief. 🤌

Think you have a painful corn on your foot? Get it checked and get back to walking comfortably.

🚨 CORN MYTH: BUSTED 🚨

“The root’s been taken out, so now the corn will grow back even deeper…”

Nope. That’s not how corns work 🤦‍♀️

A corn doesn’t have a “root” that grows deeper when it’s removed. What we’re actually removing is a concentrated, cone-shaped area of hard skin with a central nucleus.

And yes, removing it can give pretty much instant relief 🙌🏼

But here’s the important bit…

👣 Corns are caused by repeated PRESSURE + FRICTION.

So if we remove the corn but do absolutely nothing about WHY that pressure is happening, guess what?

It can come back.

And if the pressure or friction continues or increases, the corn can become deeper and more painful. Not because we removed it, but because the underlying cause is still there.

In clinic, it’s not just about getting rid of the painful bit. We want to:

• Remove the corn and its nucleus
• Reduce the surrounding hard skin
• Give you relief
• Work out WHY it formed
• Offload or reduce the pressure where possible
• Look at footwear, foot mechanics and anything else contributing to it

Treat the corn, yes. But more importantly, treat the WHY. 🕵🏼‍♀️👣

And one more thing…

❌ PLEASE DO NOT USE CORN PLASTERS.

Many contain strong acids designed to break down skin, and they can damage the healthy skin surrounding the corn too. Especially important if you have diabetes, reduced circulation or reduced sensation in your feet.

Got a painful corn that keeps coming back? It might be time to stop blaming the “root” and start investigating the pressure!

🦶 DIABETES & YOUR FEET… WHAT ARE YOU ACTUALLY CHECKING FOR?

We all need to look after our feet. But if you’re living with diabetes, foot care becomes even more important.

Almost 6 MILLION people in the UK are now estimated to be living with diabetes. Yet one thing I hear regularly in clinic is:

“I’ve been told to check my feet every day… but nobody told me what I’m actually looking for.”

So, let’s change that. 👇🏼

Diabetes can affect both the nerves and blood supply to your feet. Reduced sensation can mean you don’t always feel an injury, rubbing or blister, while reduced circulation can make wounds slower or more difficult to heal.

Your daily foot check should look for:

• Cuts, cracks or broken skin
• Blisters or areas where footwear has rubbed
• Redness or changes in skin colour
• Swelling or a change in the shape of the foot
• New corns, callus or areas of pressure
• Discharge, weeping or an unusual smell from a wound
• Changes around or between the toes
• A foot or area that suddenly feels hotter or colder than usual

And don’t ignore what you FEEL either.

• Pins and needles
• Tingling or burning
• Numbness or reduced sensation
• New or unexplained pain

If you can’t easily see underneath your feet, use a mirror or ask someone to check for you.

The important bit? Don’t wait for something to hurt. If sensation is reduced, pain might not be your warning sign.

Diabetes UK reports around 184 diabetes-related toe, foot or leg amputations every WEEK, approximately one every hour. Many serious diabetic foot problems are preventable with regular checks, early recognition and appropriate care.

Your feet aren’t “just feet”. They’re your mobility, independence and quality of life. 🦶🏼

If you’re diabetic and you’ve never really known what you should be checking for, SAVE THIS POST and make your foot check part of your daily routine.

And if something changes? Get it checked. Don’t sit on it and hope it disappears.

Plot twist… the “missing” toenail was already growing underneath. 👀

This is one of those toenail surprises that looks alarming at first—but can actually be a sign of healthy new growth.

After sport, running or a toe-meets-object moment, the original nail had become bruised, cracked and loose. Underneath, a fresh new nail was quietly growing through, ready to take its place.

Once the skin had healed, we safely removed the dead nail, smoothed everything down and gave the new growth room to thrive. ✨

Less pressure, less discomfort, and no signs of fungal infection or infection—just healthy new nail doing its thing.

Keep it hydrated with cuticle oil and let nature cook. 🙌

Got a bruised or lifting toenail? Don’t pick it—get it checked.

Love,

It’s kinda chic💋

It’s kinda chic that I built my own little foot clinic from scratch.
It’s kinda chic that I created a job where I get to laugh, smile and genuinely LOVE what I do every day.
It’s kinda chic that I get to give people their confidence back, get them out of pain and watch them leave my clinic smiling.
It’s kinda chic that I’m living my little-person dream and somehow ended up owning Red🐴
It’s kinda chic that I’m now a WIFE and get to come home to the most beautiful little family 🫶

Turns out, building a life that feels very YOU is actually kinda chic. ❤️‍🔥

Clinic owner. Foot & lower limb specialist. Horse girl. Wife. Mum.
Quite a sexy little résumé, really.
