It\u2019s your body\u2019s way of helping to lessen friction or pressure \u2013 often on the heel, ball of foot, and the sides of your feet. The friction or pressure could be from your shoes, sports, daily activity or merely from a unique characteristic in the way you walk.<\/p>\r\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/12&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; el_class=&#8221;my-5&#8243;][vc_column][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_section][vc_row el_class=&#8221;mb-5 mt-n1&#8243;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Shop Products for Calluses&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|text_align:center&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;text-uppercase&#8221;][vc_raw_html]JTVCcHJvZHVjdHNfc2xpZGVyJTIwY2F0cyUzRCUyMjIyMSUyMiUyMGF1dG9wbGF5JTNEJTIyZmFsc2UlMjIlMjBvcmRlcmJ5JTNEJTIybWVudV9vcmRlciUyMiU1RA==[\/vc_raw_html][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_section el_class=&#8221;mt-5&#8243; el_id=&#8221;what-can-i-do&#8221;][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/12&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;5\/6&#8243;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;How to Prevent &amp; Get Rid of Calluses?&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|text_align:center&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;text-uppercase&#8221;][vc_column_text]Unfortunately, it can be more of a challenge to remove a callus than it was to get it in the first place.
