Hello,
Please get assessed for arthritis and get an x-ray of feet. Also, get the lab tests such as serum uric acid, RA factor, ESR, CRP, anti-CCP antibodies.
Till the time, you may take tablet Aceclofenac two times a day and take calcium supplements also. For callosities, contact the local doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Varinder Joshi
