Sorry, it was a toss up between here and sporners corner but opted for traffic before my toe lops off. I’m asthmatic and trying to dodge chiropodist etc til I’ve had the vaccine (probably being precious, but still) so trying to self-treat a stupid corn at home.
Had it for about two months, excruciatingly painful at one point, still pretty sore now but not as bad. Anyway, all the thick, hard skin needed to go as it was digging in so painfully whenever I wore shoes (exclusively wearing trainers now but still hurts) so got some of those corn salycylic acid plasters.
Been 3 days and the contents of this gross picture has resulted. Is this a good sign and I should keep applying the plasters and it will eventually fall off (bork), or is, as I suspect, this evidence that said plasters are devouring my whole little toe?! What is all the surrounding white skin that was never involved in the initial problem about?! Are these plasters as a matter of fact eating my whole toe?!
