What are Skin Deformities on the Foot?
Skin deformities on the foot are abnormal changes in texture or appearance. These deformities can include corns on feet, foot calluses, and foot blisters. Some may be lumps, bumps, or thickened skin. Skin deformities can result from a variety of causes, including medical conditions. 
Types
- Corns: A small hard lump or thickened skin on the top or side of the toe
- Callesus: Hardened thickened area of the skin that forms on feet
- Blisters: Fluid-filled pockets that form when the skin is damaged
Causes
- Improper footwear: Shoes that are too loose or tight can create pressure points
- Moist feet: Sweaty feet can make the skin more vulnerable
- Foot shape: Abnormalities in foot shape can cause shoes not to fit properly causing your toes to become irritated
- Medical conditions: People with diabetes and arthritis are more prone
There are several more causes for why skin deformities can form. Always keep your feet thoroughly dry your feet and apply foot cream to keep them healthy and happy.
Surgery
Surgery is rarely required to treat corns, calluses, or blisters. Antibiotic medication or orthotics are a way to treat them.
