I have hard corns on my toes.
What type of surgery can I have to remove them permanently?

Normally, corns occur over joints or over bony prominences. Therefore, the surgery normally involves removing a small piece of bone and even removing the skin where the corn is located. This usually prevents the corn from reoccurring.

Can you give me an estimate as to the cost of such surgery--the removal of corns?

Honestly, it all depends on what exactly needs to be performed and if it occurs in a hospital, surgery center, or an office. The range varies from $200-$2000. Hopefully, your insurance will pay for it. Good luck and please write back if you have any further questions.

How painful is the procedure!? How long is the recovery process? How effective is the surgery? How long does it take?
