Ok, So I know the risk is super high for me to come
off as crazy with this post, but I 've developed callouses that limit my skiing and snowboarding. Since ski season is here, I want to get rid of them to minimize my foot irritation when ripping it up. I'm actually at a pedicure place in the Pearl on a chair with a woman scrubbing my feet as I write this. What else am I gonna do while sitting here? I'm not gonna read US or Elle magazine. I'm the only dude here. It's way too girlie. Are there places that offer "Athelete" pedicures?

I wonder how well a Hooters themed pedicure place would go over????

Not very well. There is only one thing a guy wants scrubbed at a Hooters.

Your feet are too dry, you need to change up your foot wear (shoes and socks) to get more moisture for your feet. Cotton socks in boots for a while might do the trick. Cornhuskers glycerin on the feet with socks on while sleeping will also help. Good luck.

I know a friend who had a similar problem. Sounds like you may have a yeast infection.
