No, corns are like painful bumps that can develop on your toes. And whether intended or not by the Japanese, I always laughed at that bit of business in the American version:
"When you and the monster meet, be sure to tell him all about your corn problems!"
"I DON'T WANNA HEAR ABOUT YOUR CORNS!!"
Good comic relief.
Yeah, a corn is also known as a clavus. The proper medical name for them is a heloma.
Clavuses (or clavi) are a specific funnel shaped form of a callus of dead skin. They most commonly form on the fingers, toes or feet. They are usually formed by the rubbing, of a shoe for example, on the skin forming the corn in such a way that it has a hard centre with a broad top tapering down to a point on the skin. Which is why they are so damn painful.
They are called corns because the hard callus of skin looks like a barley seed - which has that same funnel shape.

And he says "My corns hurt" in the face of possible danger the way someone might say "It's gonna rain today--my knee hurts."
Corn has always been a huge part in the diet of the Japanese
