| DESCRIPTION: | Corns & Calluses are the most common foot problems and come in various forms i.e. hard corns and soft corns. These small circles of thick skin tend to form on the tops and sides of toes or on the sole of the foot. Corns are often caused by wearing poorly fitted footwear which place excessive pressure on an area of the foot. Leeford Corn Caps are self-adhesive strips easy to apply and hold firmly in place over the corn. Leeford Corn Caps contains a measured dose of Salicyclic acid paste which loosens the skin to remove them. |
| SIDE EFFECTS: | Very well tolerated, mild irritation & pain at the site of application are normal and mainly associated with misplacement of the padded well of medicine. |
