Please suggest ways to get rid of corns in my hand, caused by mouse usage. The hardened skin on the hands, like corns, are called palm calluses.

First of all, if there is any pain, you should first consult a doctor. For a home remedy, soak your hands in warm water, after adding some Epsom salts. This helps soften the skin. You can also soak hands in diluted chamomile tea. Chamomile tea bags are available or rub the callous gently with a pumice stone and then apply a softening cream. Some doctors suggest crushing aspirin tablets and making a paste with water and lemon juice. Apply this on the calluses and then place a warm moist towel over it. Keep it on for 10 minutes.
