What could i do about callouses on my complete heels and discoloration?

See a podiatrist: The heels can get quite dry and callused, and cracks in them can be sore and get infected. Self-help measures are regular applications of skin emollients, use of heel cups and cushions to make them more comfortable, and use of a pumice stone to file down excess skin buildup. A podiatrist can offer more options to you, as well as look into the causes of discoloration.

Pumice Stone: Try using a pumice stone. If you are diabetic or have poor circulation, you should have it taken care of by your podiatrist.
