Man I love how you make a video about everything that helped you with climbing :)
Haha, I couldn’t find any video to watch and see how to deal with it when the corn started to hurt. Hopefully this video will help people who have the same problem. I wonder how common this problem is among climbers.
My toe brains are growing, I may need to try this. Thanks for this video.
Definitely treat them before they start to hurt!
Thank youuuu! I finally looked it up after being in pain for such a long time, and this is great.
Your videos are always really helpful. Keep making them
Glad you find the video helpful, man! I am actually kinda curious how common this problem is among climbers.
Finally someone actually demonstrating.
This comment is very late on this video but just curious about the lumps on your big toe, I also have these and thought they were just common for climbers after wearing the tight shoes a lot and always just neglected them when they were growing however recently one has begun to get very painful when climbing. Are these also toe corns and to be treated the same way or are they different noticed you didn’t touch them in your video. Any information about what these are and how to treat would be much appreciated :))
Did you find out what this was
I have them too and dont know how to treat them.
^^
Good to know I shouldn't just ignore those.
That's right!
Are those bumps on your big toes normal? Or have they ever given you pain? My brother has gotten those from his climbing shoes.
Very helpful video
Glad you find it helpful!
the skin buildup on the outside of your big toe knuckle. has that always been there or was it caused by climbing shoes? because most down turned shoes I try fell great except for that one spot on the outside of the big toe knuckle the toe rubber puts a lot of pressure there (not really rubbing, but downward pressure). did this ever happen to you and does it ever go away?
Old comment but maybe this helps: I also got that once I started wearing downturned La Sportivas
@@schonni8390 madrock drones finally solved this issue for me. very snug everywhere and no extreme big toe pressure.
@@Budokid maybe I gotta give those a try sometime!
Thank you so much
hey bro thanks so much for the vids and content you gift to us. I recently started to boulder and I choose one or even two higher climbing shoes because I feel a lot more comfortable. When do you think I should change it to my original size which are at the moment too tight for me? Is it really SO important to have such tight climbing shoes? I would love to here your honest opinion on that.
Thanks for the great tips. You can try the pumice stone in the shower too. Works on hand calluses too.
Maybe I am wrong, but I think it’s a bad idea to get rid of the calluses on the hands. Isn’t having calluses better for climbing?
@@GeekClimber You don't want to get rid of the calluses, you just want to keep them small so they don't rip off and make a blister-like wound. You can keep the pumice stone in your shower and give your hands and feet a quick scrub when your skin is wet and soft, maybe once a week, to keep them manageable.
I am curious. I also have a small bump forming on my big toe knuckle. Is that a normal thing with climbing shoes? If it is, do I just not worry about it?
Happen to have heard anything on this?
@@blazeleo8061 it definitely was caused by the tighter climbing shoes. I don’t climb much anymore and the bumps have pretty much gone away.
Looks like you may have hammer toes. Did your toes always look like that? If not, then maybe the development of hammer toes is why you got foot corns. Would explain why your shoes were fine for years and then suddenly caused foot corns.
I had to find out what hammer toes were. After some googling I'd agree he needs to find out if that's his issue.
I never heard of hammer toes. Let me look them up and see what they are. Thanks a lot for the pointer.
Hey bro, I have a quick question. do you think climber need to do weight training for making high grade?
I think most around me in my climb gym don't do that. only a professional climber does.
some said muscle training can have a bad effect on climbing.
how do you think? (I need to sign up for a new gym tho)
I don't think it's necessary. I know a ton of climbers who climb super high grades but they never weight train.
Cool vid as always. Never got corns, but plenty of gnarly blood blisters that oozed blood and yellow puss-gross. 🤮😂 I went with larger shoe size and I use “Zen toes” (neutral color rubber toe cap). When I first started climbing, the shoes were 2 sizes down to my regular street shoe-it was too painful. Now I go same size or in case of my current fav shoe, Madrock Drones HV- one size up. The Zen toes not only protect the knuckles, but the toe nails. The constant friction of toenails on the shoe, has thickened the nail that it takes animal nail clippers to cut. 🐕Now I climb for up to 8-10 hours in a day with no issues, blisters or foot issues. 🤘
Blood blisters sound worse than corns 😆. The Zen toes sound awesome. Let me google and see what they are.
I have another question about foot care. My big toe innermost knuckle hurts is starting to hurt after a climbing session and the effects are lasting longer. It almost feels like a blister is forming. Would the corn patches help that?
a softer shoe in the gym might be more user friendly :) my La Sportiva Python does a really good job.
The La Sportiva Python looks beautiful, haha. I kinda wanna try it out next time I visit REI.
Bare foot in rental shoes!?.... it was nice knowing you Geek Climber
?
Where is your Problem with that?
at lot of people climb bare foot, i pretty sure the climbing center sterilize their rental's shoes every day.
@@Vjdude101 i think so too
❦Akane-chan❦ sanitize as in a quick spray of Lysol or equivalent product? Yeah good luck with that.
My gym doesn’t have a strict requirement of wearing socks for rental shoes, and they sterilize their rental shoes every day. With that being said, I agree it’s optimal to wear socks for rental shoes, I haven’t worn rental shoes for 10+ years, so I forgot about it.
Sir could u please mention the name of the cream...i av to order
my shoes are a waste after 4 years. dont yours get holes with times ?
before they get holes, you should take your shoes to a shoemaker to resole them. Saves money
@@22Angelsking9 you can't resole the shoe at the toe area? 🤔
I wonder if this works on another part of the body ?
have you ever lose a toenail? do you keep climbing or you wait till it grows again?
Fortunately that never happened to me. In what scenario would that happen? Is it something like doing a toe jam?
@@GeekClimber I recently heard of astronauts and that they have a common problem of losing their finger nails because they have a lot of presure on the top of their fingers while working in their space suits. I would guess the same can apply to toe nails. You you press your toes too long and too hard onto your shoes und can get problems with your nails?
Hey! Is this Mesa Rim in San Diego?
Yes!
Woah
Haha, I know this video is a bit unconventional.
Just use nail cutters to cut arround the corn. Like you would cut away the edge of a vulcano. Once the outer wall is cut away.. Grab a little knife and pop it out. Stuff it full with iodine and let it heal for couple days. Dont fix the symptoms (pain) fix the problem (the corn).
I shouldn't have watched it while eating lunch...🙊
Haha, you should be able to tell this video will be a bit unconventional from the thumbnail 😆.
to be honest the simplest solution is to not use so tight climbing shoes and use socks, unless you are climbing proffessionally and is your career, wearing shocks and using less tight shoes wont affect much your capacity of climbing(plus your shoes wont smell as bad). ive been using the same size i use for normal shoes and socks and so far in doing good at climbing and my feet almost never hurt and i can keep them on for the whole climbing session without having feet pain.
What are shocks?
Bloxeh I think he means socks
@@nunchuckduck3843 oh ok! whups
Maybe I am biased, but I tried climbing with socks once and I think it affects my footwork quite a bit. I would rather wear climbing shoes half a size larger than climbing with socks.
RUclips algorithm, tell me why? Just tell me😭
RaixxYT were you looking up corn based recipes recently?
Maybe you searched something related to foot care recently.
@@GeekClimber nothing against the video, but I searched nothing like this in the past 5 years😂
