Why are my feet like this?

My feet are always dry and callused even though I put lotion on them every day. I have very wide feet, and I walk on my tiptoes because it's a habit. I know calluses can be caused by wide feet rubbing on shoes, but since it's summer I wear flips flops and can't remember the last time I had sneakers on. What can I do to make my feet less dry and have no calluses all the time?

Why are my feet like this?
Homeopathy :-


SULFUR 200C Three Doses in Three Weeks, one dose a week first thing in the morning with nothing to eat 30 minutes before and after taking it and Apply CALENDULA OINTMENT on your feet just a small amount on your soles and rub it in. Avoid Chocolates, Coffee, mints and Red Meat. report back after two doses.


Take Care and God Bless !
Reply:Get a pumice stone. They are sold in the foot care department of drug stores. Get the stone and your feet wet and rub it on the calluses. It will take off all the dead skin. Don't rub too hard. Just lightly for several days until they are gone. Use lots of lotion. I usually put some really heavy cream on my feet when they are dry and then wear socks to bed. In the morning my feet are really soft and flip-flop/sandal ready.
Reply:Wide feet? I'm right there with you! Is there a reason for you to have developed that tiptoe walking habit? Wide feet do need room in proper shoes. If you go barefooted, calluses are our feet's way of protecting themselves from harsh walking surfaces. To help soften those calluses, in healthy feet, right after bathing or showering, gently rub with a pumice stone found in most drugstores. Then rub on a moisture barrier type lotion, such as creamy petroleum jelly. Use caution as getting your feet wet or sweaty may cause them to be slippery, even in flipflops. Best time to help moisturize would be @ bedtime. Hope this helps!

Reply:Fungus can cause crackkng that looks like calluses. Use Tinactin every day for 2 weeks and see if it goes away. You might be surprised.
Reply:Some people develop calluses more and faster than others...and no amount of external lotions will prevent that. However, if you're running around in flip-flops, it's likely that this will continue to be an issue for you until you go back to wearing sneakers (preferrably with thick, soft socks that prevent rubbing). In the meantime, you may try increasing your healthy oils consumption (fish, olive, etc.)...which will help all of your skin replenish the oils it is losing due to activity and hot weather.
Reply:You can go have a pedicure done...or...you can buy...like I do....a callus shaver. Soak your feet and then this shaver takes the calluses off. It dosent hurt...(unless you accidentially shave off skin that is alive) It comes right off. Then do some basic exfoliating and keep it up at least twice a week.
