Product Information
Full details
The Profoot Corn Wraps are designed for adults seeking effective relief from painful corns. Their key benefit is providing pain relief through a soft gel infused with mineral oil that softens corns and reduces pressure and friction. A potential caveat is that while reusable, they are a consumable product and will eventually need replacement. These wraps offer a comfortable, low-profile solution that fits within footwear and also has secondary skincare benefits.

FAQs
How often should I wear the corn wraps?
For best results, wear the wraps daily. They can be worn for extended periods, including overnight, and are designed for continuous relief. Replace with a fresh wrap as needed or when comfort is compromised.
How many times can I reuse a single wrap?
Each wrap can be washed and reused multiple times. Typically, a wrap can last for several weeks with proper care (gentle washing and air drying), though this can vary based on usage frequency and individual skin conditions.
Can I use these wraps on blisters or other foot irritations?
Profoot Corn Wraps are specifically designed for corns. While they offer cushioning, they may not be the most suitable option for blisters or open wounds. It is best to use products designed for those specific conditions.
What is the primary ingredient providing relief?
The relief comes from the combination of a soft gel cushion that reduces pressure and friction, and the medical-grade mineral oil infused within the gel, which helps to soften hardened skin and corns.
Will these wraps change the fit of my shoes?
No, the wraps are designed with a low-profile, thin design to fit comfortably within most footwear without altering the shoe's fit.
Can children use Profoot Corn Wraps?
These wraps are intended for adult use. Consult a pediatrician for appropriate foot care solutions for children.
How should I store the wraps when not in use?
Store the clean and dry wraps in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep them in their original packaging or a sealed container to protect them.
Troubleshooting
Wrap does not adhere well.
Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free of lotions or oils before application. Make sure the gel side is applied to the corn and smooth out any wrinkles.
Skin irritation or redness.
Remove the wrap immediately. Wash the area gently. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
Reduced effectiveness after washing.
Ensure the wrap is completely dry before re-application. Avoid using harsh soaps or abrasive cleaning methods. Gentle hand washing is recommended.
Wrap feels too bulky in shoe.
Ensure the wrap is applied flat and smoothly. Check that the footwear itself is not already a tight fit, as the wrap adds a slight layer of thickness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To use, ensure the affected area of the skin is clean and dry. Carefully peel a corn wrap from its backing and apply the gel side directly over the corn, ensuring it adheres smoothly to the skin. For optimal results, wear the wrap inside footwear, with the wrap-around design providing coverage.
Compatibility: These wraps are designed to be compatible with most types of adult footwear, including shoes, boots, and sandals, due to their thin and flexible profile. They are suitable for general adult use.
Care: The Profoot Corn Wraps are washable and reusable. After each use, gently hand wash the wrap with mild soap and cool water. Allow the wrap to air dry completely before storing it. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Proper care ensures the longevity and effectiveness of the gel and its mineral oil.
Note: Discontinue use if irritation occurs and consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist.
