Callus is the hardened and thickened part of the skin, with yellowish
color, mostly in an area subjected to excessive force, pressure, or
friction. If you don’t treat the callus on time, it can be very painful
and moreover, it can cause serious skin infection.
Calluses often appear on the feet, because when we walk, the foot is the part which is mostly exposed to pressure.
Athletes, dancers, chefs, and musicians have higher risk of experiencing calluses due to their work demands.
However, there are other factors which can cause callus including uncomfortable shoes like tight fitting shoes or high heels.
We present you some natural remedies which can help in the treatment of calluses:
- Lemon
Take
a peel of an organic lemon and put it on the callus. Cover with a gauze
and secure it with a bandage, and let it stand overnight. You can take
it off the following morning.
- Bread and Vinegar
Soak
a piece of bread in white vinegar and put it on the callus. Cover with a
gauze and secure it with a bandage. Let it stand during the night. You
can remove it in the morning.
- Castor Oil
Apply some castor oil on your callus before going to bed. In the morning you will be surprised by its amazing results!
- Onion
Slice
a piece of onion and marinate it in white vinegar for a few hours.
Then, put the marinated onion on your callus. Cover with a gauze and
secure it with a bandage. Let it stand overnight and you can take it off
in the morning.
