Porokeratoma Treatment Process

TREATMENT PROCESS

This is my current treatment process for patients with Porokeratomas (clogged sweat glands), please watch the video for full details.

1st Visit - Evaluate your condition trim off the painful callus and apply salicylic acid to the area.
Pumice and Cream - Using a pumice and callus cream can help reduce recurrence.
Orthotics - Orthotics are useful to offload the painful callused area to prevent recurrence.
Shoe Modifications - Sometimes wider shoes can be useful or doing a shoe-liner cut out can take pressure off a painful area with a deep porokeratoma.
Excision - At times I recommend removing the painful porokeratoma with a 3-4mm punch excision technique.

Orthotics - Explanation of how and why orthotics help foot pain.
Oofos - Recovery sandals to wear at home for more support.
Shoe Recommendations - Here are my shoe recommendations and shoe-related resources.

Here are some of the best recommendations I have found on Amazon to start treatment before you come in to the office.

We have put together a number of books, webinar recordings and resources to help you.
