    Causes

    Verified Expert

    Calluses are caused by friction and repetitive pressure on the skin.

    This could happen due to:

    • Wearing loose fitting shoes that continuously rub on the skin
    • Wearing tight shoes or high heels
    • Using hand tools cause pressure on the palms

    Risk factors for developing calluses include:

    • Hammertoe - toes that are curled up
    • Not wearing gloves when handling tools
    • Bunions - a bony bump on the big toe
    • Weight gain creates pressure on the feet
