Corns and callus

Are there any home remedies I can use for my corns and calluses?

Sure, there are. Go to a pharmacy and get some pads or shoe inserts. Apply these pads to the areas where there is pressure on the skin. If you plan to use a sparing blade to remove the corns, always soak your feet first. This will make the corns softer. Use a pumice stone on a frequent bases, preferable soon after you have a shower. This will help prevent accumulation of tough skin. The one thing you should always do is apply a moisturizer several times a day. This will keep the skin soft and smooth. 


Finally, wear a decent pair of shoes and wear comfortable socks that can absorb moisture. Cotton socks are probably the best.
