1. Bread & Vinegar “Bandage”
-A piece of bread
-1 cup Apple cider vinegar or white distilled vinegar (roughly)
-gauze or thin fabric
-adhesive tape
-pumice stone (optional)
Directions
If you have one, file the callus slightly with a pumice stone. Pour 1/2 cup of apple cider vinegar (or white distilled vinegar) into a bowl. Drop in a half slice of bread and let it soak.When it is thoroughly soaked through, rest directly on your callus and wrap in gauze, before securing the gauze with adhesive or medical tape. You can also mash up the bread and form a paste to smear on and then wrap gauze over that. The size of bread and the amount of vinegar can be varied depending on the size of the area you want to cover.
2. Lemon Paste
Rub this simple paste on a callus or corn to soften it as often as needed.
You will need…
-several tablespoons of lemon juice
-2 teaspoons of olive oil
-Baking soda
Directions
Mix together 2 or 3 tablespoons of lemon juice and 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Add baking soda until a paste thick enough to stay in place forms.
Store in a container with a tightly fitting lid away from direct sunlight, and apply as often as needed. Cover with gauze or another thin fabric if you don’t want to get the paste on anything.
These remedies are a simple and easy way to get it to go away. Not only are these methods simple and effective, but they cost much less than store-bought stuff as well.
