Does any one know of a natural remedy for removing callouses or corns? My husband has one on his foot that is causing him to limp because he has to wear work boots.

Moleskin...and I will tell you its awful dang hard to skin the little buggers! :p

Usually will ease off if you cushion the area...and get different boots. I've gotten them before and it was with a particular pair of nursing shoes. Got rid of the shoes, cushioned the area with corn pads and it went away.

If you try to use the corn removers from the store you will usually just irritate the tissues on and surrounding the corn and cause it to heal more slowly. :)
