Question:
Has my weight contributed to my problems with corns?

Hi, this is kinda gross, but since I have stared classes this semester I have developed very painful corns on both feet (2 on one foot and 4 on the other foot). I have to walk a lot so I just have to grin and bear it really. I am wondering, could this be caused partly by my weight problems (I am hoping to have surgery)? The amount I walk has always been about the same, but I am at my heaviest now (5'5", 260 pounds). I also have a lot of foot pain, but I guess that's kind of normal for overweight people, right? Thanks for the input!    — [Anonymous] (posted on November 21, 2001)
