White hardening - This white hardening under the skin on palm and bottom of foot may be callosities or corns .These are hyperkeratic skin formations. It could also be scleroderma if the hardened skin appears like a bruise at first then becomes brown then white.
Its occurrence is rare but possible. No genetic link is established. It may be systemic scleroderma in some and localized is more common.
