They are not dangerous. I never knew them to cause lock jaw or death, but yet they are equal to an aching tooth, and torment their owners severely. They are caused usually by tight shoes pressing on some part so as to check the capillary circulation and as soon as that is checked the skin becomes calloused or hardened and presses on the nerves, causing great pain. There are two kinds of corns, soft, and hard. A soft corn is found between the toes; hard ones on the outer surface. Can corns be cured? My answer is, yes, by all means. The corn may be cured in a very short time. If the patient will do as I tell him he soon can get well. Bathe the foot twice a day in hot water, and after each bathing rub with Spanish Oil or King of Pain. Wear a slipper or a loose shoe. Pare the callous to the quick just so as not to cause bleeding, and, in a short time your corns will be well. Tight boots will bring them back again.
