Dr. Glenn Aufseeser answered

Athlete's foot: The calluses might in fact be a type of athlete's foot. Try using a topical therapy such as lotrimin (clotrimazole). If the itching persists, consider getting evaluated by a podiatrist.

See your foot doc: Sounds like you have hematomas, might be pre-ulcerative.Due to your discription i wouldn't attempt a home remedy.
