A case report of foot corns treated successfully with homoeopathy

Abstract

Corns are localized hyperkeratotic lesions commonly caused by chronic friction or pressure on bony prominences of the feet.Conventional treatments such as surgical excision or topical keratolytics often yield temporary relief with frequent recurrence.This case report presents a 64-year-old male with painful corns on the right foot for two years, successfully treated with individualized homoeopathic medication, Antimonium Crudum 200.Following the prescription, pain subsided, and both corns resolved completely within weeks, with no recurrence.The case highlights the efficacy of Homoeopathy as a gentle, safe, and curative approach for chronic corn management without surgical intervention, which is highlighted with Modified Naranjo Criteria.
