Hey! I have cmt1a and I have a pretty severe foot drop. Because of the way I stand on my feet I get deep calluses and splits in them. What do you do to keep your feet from ripping open???

      First thing is to moisturize your feet everyday. Use products like Eucerin. Also I schedule every 3 months with my podiatrist to address this problem. He trims my calluses down to keep them from splitting. He uses either a scalpel or grinder. I tried doing this on my own but it was too scary. Get a great podiatrist to supplement your ortho or neurologist. Hope this helps!

      I recommend getting personally fitted orthotic shoe inserts in place recommended by an orthopedist.
