Podiatry Treatment
Give your feet the treatment they deserve.
Are Your Feet Getting You Down?
Podiatry treatment comes in many different forms, and is designed to help with many conditions that affect the feet and legs. As the feet and legs form the foundation of our bodies, they’re integral to how our bodies function, and as such may affect more than just the feet and legs themselves. Podiatry treatment aims to relieve pain from the toes to the knees in order to help us achieve optimal foot health and perform at our best.
Podiatry: Your Feet’s Best Friend
Podiatry is healthcare concentrating on the feet and lower limbs, including the ankle and calf. The health professional who performs podiatry is known as a podiatrist. The aim of podiatry is to diagnose, treat, and rehabilitate issues with the feet, legs, and related structures, and to prevent these issues wherever possible.
How Do I Know If I Could Benefit From Podiatry Treatment?
Regardless of the problem you have with your feet or lower legs, it’s important to treat it as early as possible. After all, your feet and legs take you where you need to go, so you need to look after them. If you have foot or leg pain that’s been bothering you, it’s always a good idea to make an appointment with a podiatrist. This ensures that any potential issues are addressed as quickly as possible, which gives your podiatrist a better chance of treating it before it becomes more of a problem. Any issue that stops you from living your life the way you want to deserves your attention, feet and legs included. While any and all foot and leg problems may benefit from podiatry treatment, many people who visit podiatrists have conditions such as:
- Arthritis
- Circulatory diseases
- Diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, or neuropathy
- A clinical diagnosis or history of foot or lower limb deformity
- A clinical diagnosis of falls
- Soft tissue and muscular pathologies
However, podiatry is for anybody and everybody who may benefit from a podiatrist’s care. Whether you have a plantar wart that won’t go away, an ingrown toenail that’s causing you pain, shin pain that stops you from running, or a fungal nail infection that won’t allow you to go barefoot, a podiatrist is your best bet.
What Conditions May Podiatry Help With?
People of all ages and abilities see podiatrists for a number of reasons. Children, teenagers, adults, and the elderly may visit a podiatrist for help with conditions such as:
- Aching feet and/or legs
- Growing pains in children
