Feet picking
I have a problem with my feet which causes them to go scabby and bits of skin to flake off. Steroid cream clears the problem up in a few days, but if I stop using the cream, it returns.

Although it is sometimes painful, I cannot stop picking the scabs from my feet. My wife hates this, as I get dead skin all over the carpet (I do it mainly when I'm sitting on the sofa).

I know the cream will cure it, but I do not mind having the scabs enough to warrant me going out of my way to obtain more... and in some strange way, I kind of find it theraputic.

Is this normal?

Loofah it too!
For the sake of your wife, please don't pick on the couch, do it in private in the loo.

It's human nature to want to pick at things on yourself or on others. You just happened to fullfill the nature to "groom" with your feet. But, yes, please do that in the bathroom.

I think it's normal to do this; I agree with the other comment it should be done somewhere else (such as the bathroom). It is kind of like when you get sunburnt and the skin starts to peel... I love the idea of peeling it off as do probably most people.

It may be common, but is it good?
Just because you have a natural urge to do something doesn't mean that doing it is good for you. It would be healthier just to get the medicine to solve the problem. As well as more sanitary and not as annoying to your wife.

You really don't want her to have to put up with anything that you can help.

Is it normal? Im not so sure. But I do it too!! I am an infamous nail biter and when im not biting my nails, I like to clip my nails all the way down... and when im not doing that I like to pick at my feet. I will pick all night. sometimes when i sit down on my bed before I go to sleep I start picking and before I know it i have been picking for about an hour! I also pick on my hands too (at a small calous that I have)... I think its an obssesive habbit. It cant be good, so it has to be bad.. and my friends and coworkers get annoyed with watching me bit my nails and/or pick at my hand. We need to stop.

this is the nastiest and most annoying thing that my husband does! we get into major fights because he always is either picking his feet or rubbing his privates!! it drives me crazy, i hate it more than anything. he picks at his toes so much that he has picked the toenail off his smallest 4 toes! its the first thing he does as soon as he sits on the sofa and takes off his shoes. he doesnt pick at anything else except his feet. i dont know how to get him to stop, we argue about it constantly. please some advice! ive tried the nice route by letting him know that it bothers me and he doesnt care.
