🤨 Why Do I Have a Callus on the Ball of My Foot? 🔹
Calluses are your skin’s natural response to pressure or friction, but when they form on the ball of your foot, they can become painful or annoying.
Common Causes:
👟 Ill-fitting shoes – too tight, too loose, or high heels
🏃♀️ Repetitive pressure from walking, running, or standing
🦶 Foot mechanics – high arches, bunions, or toe deformities
⚡ Activity-related friction – sports, dancing, or long periods on your feet
If your callus is painful, persistent, or affecting your walking, a podiatrist can safely remove it and address the cause. https://www.zocdoc.com/doctor/jonathan-pajouh-dpm-320983
