What Causes Calluses On Hands And Feet?
I Have had these rough pads or calluses one my hands and feet since I was young. My brothers have similiar issues. As does my dad and his siblings. I think my fathers mother had it. We are all under the assumption its a form of epydermolytic hyperkerytosis. Are we on the right track?
