Recipe and advice needed

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I would like to find a good recipe for a healing foot lotion or ointment to make

for

my boyfriend's feet. He has what he calls calluses on his feet, but they are

each

about the size of a nickel. I'm not sure if they really are calluses because

they're

really hard and he said it hurts when he uses a pumice stone on them, but he

won't

visit a doctor.

Does anyone know of a good foot lotion or of something I can make that has

healing

and softening properties? Thanks in advance.

Hugs,

Rhonda

Rhonda if what he has is actually a callus, just save yourself the time and

dollars and get him some callus pads from the pharmacy (over the counter).

They are not expensive. All he has to do is pull it off the sticky paper it

comes on, stick it on his foot and wear socks for a few days to protect it

and keep it in place and the callus will peal right off.

I go barefoot during the summer, and got a callus last year. This works like

a charm and is painless. Mine tingled at first, but I barely knew it was on

there and much cheaper than expensive oils and the time it takes to make a

product that one won't know if it works or not or how long it would take.

Thanks; I didn't know about callus pads. We'll have to give them a try.

Hugs,

You are welcome Rhonda. I found it a piece of cake! Mine hurt like the

dickens every step I took and in less than a week, I pulled the pad off and

fiddled a minute with my foot and pealed the callus right off. No more pain.

I hope it helps your guy too.
