Callused Feet
Do you have thick, dry skin on the bottom of your feet or the side of your big toe(s)? Do you have dry, cracked heels? If you answered yes, you have callused feet. Calluses on your feet can be embarrassing – especially if you want to wear flip flops, backless shoes, or open-toed sandals.
What Causes Calluses on Feet?
The causes behind foot calluses are no mystery. They include:
- Walking barefoot
- Wearing tight shoes or high heels
- Wearing lose-fitting shoes where your foot slides around
- Wearing socks that don’t fit
- Wearing shoes and sandals without socks
It’s pretty hard to live in Florida and avoid wearing shoes, sandals, and flip-flops without socks! Not to mention walking barefoot on the beach. So, chances are good that you will develop calluses on your feet at some point. You may be predisposed to foot problems because of genetics or diabetes. So, it’s important to take care of your feet safely. Don’t try scraping with a metal grater or cutting calluses off.
