If you’re healthy, you don’t need treatment for corns and calluses unless they cause pain or you don’t like how they look.

Corns and calluses are not the same thing. Corns are smaller and deeper than calluses and have a hard center surrounded by swollen skin.
They can be painful when pressed. Hard corns often form on the top of the toes or the outer edge of the small toe. Soft corns tend to form between the toes. Calluses are rarely painful and tend to develop on pressure spots, such as the heels, the balls of the feet, the palms and the knees. They may vary in size and shape and are often larger than corns.
