WHAT DOES KERATOMA MEAN IN ENGLISH?

keratoma

Callus

A callus is a toughened area of skin which has become relatively thick and hard in response to repeated friction, pressure, or other irritation. Rubbing that is too frequent or forceful will cause blisters rather than allow calluses to form. Since repeated contact is required, calluses are most often found on feet because of frequent walking. Calluses are generally not harmful, but may sometimes lead to other problems, such as skin ulceration or infection.

Definition of keratoma in the English dictionary

The definition of keratoma in the dictionary is a thick horny growth on the skin, caused for example by rubbing or pressure.
