@@simplemanplan409 You mean on your baby toe? Usually a pumice stone works well on the tough skin around your heel or on the bottom of your feet. Don't use it on any delicate skin.
Thank you! I started at once per week but wasn't getting any results. Then I changed to every one to two days and also learned I wasn't pressing strong enough. I also learned that the angle of the movement greatly determined how effective the motion was.
Thank you :) I haven't taken care of myself properly the last year - putting everyone else first - and when I stopped my barefooting and staying in dead skin accumulated and it does not look awesome 😟 Most videos don't mention to use it gently so that's great advice. Thank you for the video! Have a great day!
Hi and thanks for great video! I knew to soak feet first but wasnt sure to use my pumice stone dry or wet! Now I know from a foot doc! Surprised you didn’t suggest to at least rinse off the pumice stone in clean water from tap in sink or shower after each use! Thanks again 😃
Hello Dr Dave!! I got a pumice stone for my son because he does have a callous under his foot and I was using it wrong. I saw a few videos where they talk too much that I was about to exit out when I saw you and I'm so glad I watched!. You were to the point, didn't waste no time which is what I was looking for. Thank you!! Thank you! Thank you😊
Thank you Dr. Dave! This was very helpful! I was having foot pain, replaced my running shoes, etc. The pain was from a callus & I am so clueless about foot problems. This was so helpful and practical! Thank you so much!
Thank you for explaining how to use this doctor, I got one off eBay and I didn’t even know the correct way to use it , your video was very very helpful
This is great! I've just found your channel. You are definitely not a time waster - very informative & helpful! I just bought a pumice stone after being dissatisfied with a recent pedicure, but had no idea what to do. Now I'm ready to go. Thanks for your help!
Thank you so very much for walking us through how to use these. I'm not good at taking care of my feet and dont even know where to start with doing so. Very helpful and informative. Plus you were able to explain to me without me feeling completely dumb and I needed that.
Excellent. Straight to the point! I have calluses on side of foot beneath or close to the small toe area. Calluse reoccur. I walk 15-20k daily. The hard calluse is surrounded by soft tissue. It is difficult to get the callus when using pumice stone. Will continue to work on it. Thanks for the video
Also good for foot odor. Removing dead skin can reduce bacteria and other fungus issues. After a good cleaning, spray the feet with anti fungus medication. Should help.
Seriously great video! I’ve had a callous on the right of my foot for weeks wanted to get a pumice stone, but I didn’t feel informed enough to how to use it until now!
Not gonna like, uneven and pointy lava rocks that u find in the front yard are the BEST no softening required, just stand and twist, also gets the itch if one happens to appear
I have very flaky skin on my thighs that is always shedding. Would this work to get rid of the dead skin or is there a better solution? I have a brush with hard medium bristles I tried using for dry and wet brushing but does little to get rid of the dead skin. I also moisturize often.
I’m so glad I watched this before attempting to pumice my foot for the first time lol. I do have a quick question, can this stone also help cracked areas on my foot or should I just use it on tough calluses? Thank so much!
Thank you sir. I have developed thick painful patch at the bottom of my feet. Recently even my eyesight in one eye has gone weak. What precaution should I take ? Thank you.
Always be careful when you are diabetic. You do not want to abrade the skin such that it might bleed. Removing calluses is important because they can become ulcers but if you doubt your ability to do it safely you should consult a podiatrist to do it for you. Thanks for your comment.
I litterally cannot stand the feeling of a pumice stone but I think I have some sever calluses. have some on my big toes which aren't too bad but the outside bottom of each foot has some super dry and almost scaly skin. Like I can lift a flap up it up almost like opening a fishes gil. Tried to clip off the extra but this was difficult to do and now I have what appears to be some open wounds on my feet. I need a solution that makes this easier to do without the use of a pumice stone if at all possible. does anyone have any suggestions?
i have a question my dad has a fungal infection in both his big toe nails,, he got it from a public pool years ago. we have been recommended tea tree oil and soaking his feet in borax. is there anything that will kill it and remove it?
I have this dry thing on my entire foot its thick and thin in some places. Is rubbing my entire foot dangerous? Great video BTW I just tried rubbing my foot with the stone lol
Go see your podiatrist and have it debrided off and then ask them if you can maintain it at home with the pumice stone so it doesn't get so large again.
Very informative video. Not wasted a single second. Everything I needed to know I found out in this video. Thank u.
Thank you for such a kind positive comment and for taking the time to write it.

That's the problem I have. I tend bar and am constantly on my feet and it's callused just under my toes and it's very hard to get in there
Hey foot doctor
Can u please show us how to actually use the pumice stone
On a fake foot
Or on ur own foot or on a patients foot
Thanks foot doctor
❤️
I get hard skin on my left heal only. I always used a cutting knife to carefully remove it. I will try one of those.
💀
I learned a few things on here thank you
Carrie - I appreciate you taking the time to comment. I am glad you liked the video.
Thank you, doctor. Have callouses on my heels and first bought one of the foot cheese graters but needed something smaller. Trying these out soon.
Thanks for your comment Malice.
I didn’t have to hear “foot cheese grater” today
if you use the flat type of nail clippers, you can cut tread patterens into your heel callus'
better traction on slippery surfaces
Also good for foot odor. Removing dead skin can reduce bacteria and other fungus issues. After a good cleaning, spray the feet with anti fungus medication. Should help.

I have many stones however I was not educated in how to use it until now. Thank you 1954

This or a remover or both? If both, in what order? Very informative thanks!
Thanks so much
Thanks 🙏🏿 dr 👨🏿⚕️ Dave

Thanks for taking the time to comment Helen.
Very good thanks I like pumice sponges better
Love the video Love my podiatrist thank you so much for the really good information
Thanks Bill for your comment.
Thanks!
Great video doctor!!! Very informative!!!
Thank you - much appreciated.
How long should it generaly take to fully remove a callous from the foot using a pumice stone?
That answer depends on how thick a callus is. If the callus is very thick it helps if a podiatrist pares it down first.
Thank you, Dr.
Thank you
Exactly what you want to see in a TH-cam video
Thank you sir.
I have developed thick painful patch at the bottom of my feet. Recently even my eyesight in one eye has gone weak. What precaution should I take ?
Thank you.
Visit your podiatrist. Let your doctor take care of your feet. If your vision is compromised it is too dangerous for you to do it yourself.
I followed your instructions and it works =) thank you so much !
Thank you for all the information, great video easy to understand and very helpful.
Thanks for the positive comment Shawnee.
Thanks very helpful!!!!!!!!!!!!
is the same principle for resistance warts?
Thankyou doctor! I have diabetes so can i use this technique? And what are the precautions i need to take?

I have videos on that subject. Check the playlists.
❤ thank you ❤
After using the pumice stone in a bath over skin. Can it cost bumps n I hung skin all over the body?
Great video!
Many thanks for your comment.
He related to Seinfeld 🤣
Can we use it in our whole body?
Can i remove dark spots from toes and from ankeles please tell
Thanx a bunch . Cheers
Cheers!
Thank you ✌
Your very welcome!

Can I use this stone daily to remove the callous in foot?
He answered that in the 3 minute video. The answer is no
Can you use on teeth?
Can we have a foot doctor remove the calus?
Hi, thank you for the informative video. Is it possible for callus tp cause pain upon weight bearing? I am having one at the base of my 5th toe
Yes. It is very common.
Will the pain heal with regular removal of the callus using pumice stone?
@@mdnoornoorzayyani5598 let's see what happens. If it doesn't then go see your doctor.
I have this dry thing on my entire foot its thick and thin in some places. Is rubbing my entire foot dangerous? Great video BTW I just tried rubbing my foot with the stone lol
I would just use it on the areas that need it.
This is very helpful, thank you!
Thanks for taking the time to comment.
So I want the stone wet first?
What do you do with a hard callus? Mine sticks out a bit but it's very hard
Go see your podiatrist and have it debrided off and then ask them if you can maintain it at home with the pumice stone so it doesn't get so large again.
