Treating Corns with Vinegar Essence:

First, take a wide adhesive plaster and cut out a piece about 5 cm in size. Cut a hole in the center that matches the size of your corn. Stick the plaster with the hole on the affected area so that the corn is visible through it. Then pour a few drops of 70% vinegar essence into a spoon, add a bit of flour, and mix until you obtain a homogeneous mass. Shape it into a patty and place it on the corn, then cover it all with a second layer of plaster. Do not remove the bandage for three days. After that, soak your foot in warm water with the addition of potassium permanganate and gently remove both layers of plaster – the corn should come off with it. If the root of the corn remains, repeat the procedure after some time.
