Is this sentence logically correct?

Good evening from the Philippines.

Would you kindly tell me if this sentence is logically correct (because I hear Americans say it this way):

There's a callus on her fingers due to hard work.

Is it possible to have a single callus on several fingers?

My sincerest thanks.

"Good evening from the Philippines" is fine. "There's a callus on her fingers" doesn't seem quite right. It should be either "There's a callus on her finger" or "There are calluses on her fingers".
