Girlfriend needs to watch her step DEAR ABBY: I have been dating my boyfriend, “Jose,” for a year. Before that, we were friends for five years. Ever since I’ve known him, he and his half-sister, “Blanca,” have danced together at parties. We’re all in our mid-20s. They dance salsa, merengue and other styles of music together. I used to think it was cute, but now that Jose and I are a couple, I find it annoying and a little creepy. He says Blanca loves to dance and can’t always find good partners. She gets mad when he dances with me instead of her during her favorite songs. I told Jose he can dance only with me at the parties or only with her. Not both. I don’t want to share him, and honestly, people joke that it’s incestuous. How can I make him understand how much this bothers me? What can I say

My relationship with her is friendly, but it was better before I started dating her half-brother. — TAKES TWO DEAR ONLY TO TANGO ABBY DEAR TAKES ONLY Jeanne Phillips TWO: If you want to hang onto Jose, simmer down and be less heavy-handed. Dictating who he can dance with only makes you appear to be jealous, insecure and controlling. Because he and Blanca have danced together for so long, it’s understandable that she expects to dance

Bad shoes can be cause of corns, calluses shoes will reduce the irritation that caused the problem. And most pharmacies sell products that help cushion corns and calluses.

Pharmacies sell various chemical peels and acid disks for corns and calluses. But use such products with caution. Most of them contain salicylic acid, which can damage healthy skin. For larger corns and calluses, a foot-care specialist may have to shave away some of the thickened skin. In some instances, you may need surgery to correct an underlying problem if the irritation is caused by a problem with your foot’s bone structure. Perhaps the most common example is a bunion, a swelling at the base of the big toe. To prevent recurrent calluses and corns, wear shoes that fit comfortably, provide cushioning in the sole and leave enough room at the toes. If you have diabetes, peripheral neuropathy or some other circulatory problem, don’t treat the corn or callus yourself. See a

DEAR DOCTOR K: I have a patch of hard skin on my foot. Is it a corn or a callus? How should I treat it? DEAR READER: I can’t answer your question without seeing it. But I can tell you what to look for, and when it requires a visit to your doctor. Corns and calluses are areas of hardened skin. They develop to protect the foot from the damage that can be caused by friction from poorly fitting shoes. Over time, if the irritation continues, a corn or callus may grow and cause discomfort and pain that interferes with walking. One big difference between a corn and a callus is location. Calluses usually form on the bottom of the feet. Corns form on top, usually around the toes. Calluses generally consist of a broad area of thickened skin. Corns are smaller and may have a dense knot of skin in the center. In many cases, better-fitting

foot-care specialist. I remember a 70-year-old patient who had heart failure, kidney failure and chronic lung disease. Strong medicines were just barely keeping these problems in check. I saw her every three to four months, and at each visit, I asked her lots of questions and performed a physical examination. She always seemed uninterested in the state of her heart, kidneys and lungs. All she wanted to talk about were her feet — her corns and calluses. When I interrupted her to ask more questions about her various life-threatening conditions, she admonished me: “Doctor, we all have to die of something. But we don’t have to have sore feet.” DR.
