Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to painful corns. I suggest to:
- Soak your foot in warm water. Make sure the corn is fully submerged for about 10 minutes or until the skin softens.
- File the corn with a pumice stone. A pumice stone is a porous and abrasive volcanic rock that's used for sloughing away dry skin.
- Apply lotion to the corn.
- Use corn pads.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
