Man goes on Body Fixers for help with his curled up feet and crusty yellow toenails
Paul says his people "point and laugh" at his "unique" tootsies
A MAN has sought help for his curled up feet after they were called “pig trotters” by a group of children.
Appearing on E4’s Body Fixers, distraught Paul revealed he hasn’t looked at his tootsies since he was a teenager and as a result he now has yellow, crusty toenails.
The 29-year-old from Hull said he’s now desperate to sort out his feet before jetting off on a lads holiday to Las Vegas.
He told the team of experts: “I've got a bit of a problem that's affecting my life at the minute. It's even got to the point that its scaring kids now.”
Paul discovered he had a problem over the summer while he was in a café wearing flip flops.
“I sat down at a table and I could see kids pointing from across the room,” he said.
“They were all laughing and referring to my feet. The kids called them pig trotters.
“I was pretty distraught at the time so I ended up getting up to leave.”
Paul said his unique feet have also played havoc with his love life.
“If things get a bit steamy and we end up in the bedroom, I always have to leave my socks on to keep my feet covered up,” he said.
“The one time I did take my socks off she couldn't get out fast enough. I need my feet fixing.”

After removing his trainer and socks, Paul was met with audible gasps from the team.
“Woah! They’re reaching for the sky!” they joked.
Paul was swiftly taken off by the beautician and was given a very thorough pedicure to sort out his nails and hard skin.
“I’ve trimmed back the toenails, defluffed them and got rid of the gunk from underneath,” she said.
Paul said the last time he saw his feet looking normal was when he was 13.
“Wow look at the transformation, I can't even believe they are my feet,” he said.
“It's the first time in years I've been able to look at them. I can't wait to get around the pool and I'm going to keep this up.”
Meanwhile, the team have previously helped a groom who had an excessive sweat problem.
They sent Jonathon to Dr Esho who gave him Botox jab to help stop the perspiration.
