As podiatrists, we often see people who believe they have a corn on their foot who are surprised when we tell them that it's a wart.

This is an easy mistake to make as warts and corns can be very similar in appearance. There are a few features, however, that help to distinguish one from the other.

The table below outlines just some of the most common features we look for when distinguishing between a wart and corn.
