In hot weather, wet calluses often form on the heels and toes of the foot. Formations occur because strong pressure is exerted on the tissue in this zone or they experience pronounced friction. This serves as a natural reaction of the body, protecting the soft tissues of the foot from further damage.
Such a corn must be treated in a timely manner. It causes severe pain and dramatically reduces the quality of life. There is a high risk of damage to the bladder. In this situation, the tissue is affected by a purulent infection. Such an inflammatory process causes swelling of the foot and increased pain, which does not allow a person to walk. Let's consider what kind of education it is, as well as what needs to be done with it.
A wet corn looks like a bubble with a transparent liquid inside. The formation appears on the skin when the friction force acts on it for a long time. Most often it occurs in the areas of the feet where the skin most closely comes into contact with the surface of the shoe.
They also occur on the palms of the hands if a person holds a tool in his hand and exerts considerable effort when performing work. During the formation of a bubble with liquid, there is a shift of the epidermis in relation to the dermal layers, which are located below.
A person usually does not notice the initial changes on the skin. Redness and slight swelling appear in this place. When the effect of friction continues, the final detachment of the surface layers of the epidermis occurs. As a result, a cavity filled with tissue fluid is formed.
Small calluses do not need to be opened. With proper and timely treatment, they pass quickly by themselves, leaving no traces. Large water calluses should definitely be pierced. When this manipulation is performed correctly, the process of cell repair accelerates.
When opening the bladder independently, it is important not to introduce pathogenic bacteria into the tissues. This requires compliance with the following recommendations:
For reliable protection of the damaged place, it is recommended to apply aerosol dressing "Pentazol". It has a cooling effect, protects the wound from penetration of pathogenic bacteria, and at the same time it is well anesthetized.
