A corn has a core that goes deep into the tissue. The only way it should be removed is by what is called surgical paring,( just a fancy word cutting) or chemical peeling. Use something like Dr. Scholl's corn patches. I use them and they work wonderful. Now that you are bleeding, you have opened the tissue to infection. Before going to a Dr. I would call first and see what they think. Meantime, wrap it up and put Neosporin under the wrap. This will hold off some types of infections. Good luck.

You can buy corn remover pads from the store. It is not wise to cut it, You could end up with a scare or get it innfected. If the pads dont work it would be best to see a doctor.

You cut too deep. Let a podiatrist remove your corn. You will be safer. I have done the same thing so I know what you mean. I had to wrap my foot with bandages after I applied a topical antibiotic to it.

That's disgusting...
No one should discuss anything having to do with corn and bodily functions in an open forum!
Nasty!
Wait until Monday and go see a dermatologist.
oh... and quit cutting things off your body too!
