This handy little tool is a God send. I had to go to the podiatrist recently for extreme pain coming out of my large toe. I really thought I had gout, but it turned out to be a buildup of calluses. So the doctor takes out his handy scalpel and starts to cut the skin. I was petrified. I was so afraid of more pain to my foot if the doctor took off too much skin, but I was lucky that day. It did help relieve the pain; which I was totally surprised. Time went on and so does the skin around the top of my toe. It grows more skin, of course. So now I have the same problem as before. Well I do not want to keep going to the doctors & pay a co pay every month. So I did research and found this great tool that shaves off a little skin at a time. Wow! What a game changer. I was able to take care of my callus on my toe & I did my entire feet. Smooth as a babies bottom. I love this tool. It saved me lots of money and I can take care of the problem myself. Highly recommend!
