Symptoms of Irritated Calluses

Each step creates even more pressure and friction on the calluses, increasing their sensitivity and susceptibility to irritation. This is why the irritation of a callus can cause you discomfort during your day. However, apart from discomfort, in the case of an irritated callus, the first thing you will notice is the redness at the area. If the pressure and friction are intense, then you could also notice some peeling of the skin. While, excessive friction could cause an open wound, which carries the risk of infection.

Causes of Irritated Calluses

The two most common causes of irritated calluses are pressure and friction. This is because, by its very nature, a callus is a raised lump on the surface of your skin. In other words, the unevenness of the skin surface and repetitive movements create the conditions. The fabric material or the absence of a sock, but also the temperature and humidity that develop inside a closed type shoe could play also a key role.
