I was raised on a farm, and when I wasn't out in the pastures, I was barefoot. So I have extremely calloused feet. In fact, everything but the inside arch is calloused.
For the past few months, I have been noticing that everytime I take a shower or bath, I can't just wash my feet with soap and water. I actually have to take one of those scrubbing pads for your back or something, and scrub the dead skin cells off. And if I don't do this, once a week, my feet will get so bad that the skin literally peels right off the calloused parts. It looks and acts (in the way it peels) like a sunburn.
What is this, and is it treatable? It really grosses me out, and I always hide my feet because people ask me what happened to them...(they're just calloused, people!)
