Routine footcare
- whether it be a
painful corn or callus, an ingrown or thickened toenail or you just can't
look after your feet yourself, a Podiatrist can quickly & painlessly
make you comfortable.
- routine footcare, as
the name implies, deals with more basic, routine problems. This doesn't mean
that these problems are not painful. On the contrary, it's very important to
care for your feet. Click on the 'FOOTCARE' link
for information on how to care for your own feet.
- many people are
nervous when they first see a Podiatrist. Most Podiatrists will examine your
feet first & clearly explain what is wrong & what can be done to
relieve your problem. If they are going to use any instruments, make sure
they are sterilised.
- often various types of
paddings can be applied to prevent the recurrence of a problem.
Unfortunately most routine foot problems reoccur.
- footcare is of
equal importance to dental care! Without comfortable feet, our ability to
move, to exercise, to live is greatly reduced. Footcare should commence as a
child.
Podiatrists specialise in the care of the foot & ankle.
Whether it be a minor or major problem, see a Podiatrist in regard to any foot
or ankle problem.
