Carnation Footcare Corn Caps for Effective Corn Removal

You can treat painful corns on your feet with these medicated corn removal plasters that contain salicylic acid. Each cap delivers targeted treatment directly to the affected area, helping to soften and remove hardened skin that forms corns. The pack contains 10 individual caps, providing you with multiple treatments for stubborn foot corns.

These medicated plasters work by creating a protective barrier around the corn whilst delivering active treatment. You'll find relief from the discomfort that corns cause when walking or wearing shoes. The caps are designed to stay in place during normal daily activities, allowing the treatment to work continuously.

How Salicylic Acid Treats Corns

The active ingredient salicylic acid works as a keratolytic agent, which means it helps to break down the thick, hardened skin that forms corns. This process gradually softens the corn tissue, making it easier to remove naturally. The acid penetrates the corn structure, dissolving the bonds between dead skin cells.

Each corn caps application delivers a controlled dose of salicylic acid directly to the corn site. This targeted approach ensures the treatment reaches the affected area whilst protecting the surrounding healthy skin from unnecessary exposure to the active ingredient.

Suitable for Most Adult Corn Sufferers

These corn plasters are suitable for adults who experience painful corns on their feet. You can use them to treat corns that develop from repeated pressure or friction, commonly occurring on toes or the soles of your feet. The caps work particularly well for corns that have become thick and hardened over time.

The treatment is appropriate for you if you have:

Hard corns on toes or foot soles
Corns causing discomfort when walking
Thick, raised areas of hardened skin
Corns that haven't responded to simple padding or cushioning

However, you should not use these caps if you have diabetes, poor circulation, or any condition affecting sensation in your feet. People with these conditions require professional medical assessment before using any foot care treatments.

Targeted Treatment with Protective Design

The caps feature a protective design that concentrates the salicylic acid treatment on the corn whilst shielding healthy surrounding skin. This targeted approach reduces the risk of irritation to normal skin areas. The adhesive backing keeps the cap securely in place during treatment.

Each cap provides several days of continuous treatment, allowing the salicylic acid to work gradually on the corn tissue. You don't need to apply the treatment multiple times daily, making it a convenient option for busy lifestyles.

Storage and Handling Requirements

You should store these corn caps in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep the package sealed when not in use to maintain the effectiveness of the adhesive and active ingredient. Store them out of reach of children and pets.

Check the expiry date before use and do not use caps that have passed their expiration date. If the adhesive backing appears damaged or the cap looks dried out, do not use that particular cap as it may not provide effective treatment.

This product is a medicine. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

How to Apply Corn Caps Correctly

You should clean and dry the affected area thoroughly before applying the corn cap. Remove the protective backing from the cap and place it directly over the corn, ensuring the medicated pad sits centrally on the corn. Press the edges down firmly to ensure good adhesion to your skin.

Treatment Duration and Replacement

You can leave each cap in place for up to 48 hours, depending on your skin's response to treatment. After removing the cap, you may notice the corn has softened and some dead skin can be gently removed. You can apply a new cap if the corn requires further treatment, but allow your skin to rest between applications if any irritation occurs.

Do not use more than one cap at a time on the same corn. If the corn persists after using several caps or if you experience significant irritation, discontinue use and consult your pharmacist or doctor for alternative treatment options.

Potential Side Effects of Corn Caps

Like all medicines, Carnation Footcare Corn Caps can have side effects, although not everyone will experience them. Most people tolerate the treatment well when used as directed, but some individuals may experience skin reactions to the salicylic acid or adhesive components .

The most common side effects involve local skin reactions at the application site. These typically occur if the cap is left on too long or if you have sensitive skin that reacts to the active ingredient.

Known side effects may include:

Skin irritation or redness around the application site
Burning or stinging sensation when first applied
Skin peeling or flaking in the treated area
Allergic reaction to the adhesive backing
Excessive softening of surrounding healthy skin
Temporary discolouration of treated skin
Increased sensitivity in the treated area
Mild pain or discomfort during treatment

If you experience these or any other side effects, speak to your doctor or pharmacist right away. For more information about reporting side effects please see the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme.
