    Callouses are growths, not body parts.

    They are not really growths, but a thickening of the skin, which is a body part.

      That makes callouses akin to scars, abrasions, lacerations, burns, puncture wounds, tattoos, piercings, etc. that while they appear on the body parts, they are not separate body parts nor actual body parts themselves, correct? Are moles and skin tags considered body parts?
