What is the best way to treat a callus turning white on the side of the big toe that developed from running?

Pumice stone : Soke it and then file off the callus with a pumice stone. After that use moleskin to protect the area from forming a new callus.

Callous: The best thing to do is determine why the callous is there. For that see your podiatrist. The moleskin recommended will cushion the area a bit but will not prevent recurrance.
