The foot problems, unfortunately, are often a function of aging -- as my podiatrist says, "Time wounds all heels."
Somebody else has to start another thread on orthotics for boondockers -- I am too busy smearing on all of those terrific hand cream remedies -- can't type -- hands all sticky. ;)
Nothing like a 3 minute hot shower, and then hitting the callused portions of the foot and heel with a Ped Egg, immediately after exiting the shower. It will cheese grate away the calluses rather nicely.
My Keens sandals have aggravated this condition when going without wearing socks with sandals. Wearing socks and shoes alleviates how fast the calluses advance. Helps a lot if the calluses are moist and softened first before you start trying to skin them alive with this tool, it cuts much more efficiently and keeps the blades sharp a lot longer.
