  • Ugly Toenails and Crooked Toes: Five Common Foot Flaws and Ways to Fix Them

    Five Common Foot Flaws and How to Fix ThemDo you cringe every time you look down at your feet? Are you an expert at hiding them away from sight, even if it means wearing socks all summer? Crooked toes and ugly toenails might have you reaching for your best pair of shoes as camouflage, but the good...

  • Is there an effective way to remove and prevent corns?

    Corns are due to your bodies response to excessive friction. The corn hardens the skin in that area. Corns form due to pressure on the skin. Almost all corns will slowly fade away once you remove the source of friction that is causing it. It is important to purchase shoes with plenty of room and that are not cramped in the toes. Fit your shoes at the end of the day when you feet are their largest. Once the source of friction has been removed, it is important to keep the skin moisturized. Avoid acid patches as they can lead to infections and even worsen the pain. Padding the toes is good to help relieve friction, but again, without the acid. You can treat your corn or callus at home by soaking your foot in warm, soapy water then filing away the surface with a fine emery board if you are not diabetic or have poor blood flow. However, if the pain continues to exist, we highly recommend seeing a podiatrist. READ MORE

  • How do ingrown toenails get infected?

    With an ingrown toenail, the edge of the toenail pierces the skin which causes a break in the skin. When this open area is placed into a dirty shoe or on the dirty ground, infection commonly follows. Any break in the skin can get infected READ MORE

  • What is Morton's neuroma?

    A neuroma (often referred to as a Morton’s neuroma) is a thickening of the nerve in the ball of the foot. This thickened nerve is most commonly located between the 3rd and 4th toes, although it can occur anywhere in the ball of the foot. The enlarged nerve becomes compressed between the bones of the forefoot and can lead to severe pain. Although considered a benign condition, if a neuroma is left untreated, it can lead to permanent damage of the nerve. READ MORE

  • What causes toenails to be thick and yellow?

    The most common cause is a toenail fungus. This is known as onychomycosis. This fungus infection needs to treated to go away. If left untreated, it can spread to other nails and destroy the nail. The good news is that there are newer prescription topical medicines to kill the fungus and allow the nails to grow out more healthy READ MORE

  • Could weight be a contributing factor for ankle and knee pain?

    The more a person weighs, the more stress it puts on the knees, ankles and feet. This also increases pressure on the tendons and ligaments that support these areas. Every excess pound loss helps to decrease these pressures and will help get you back to doing the things you love- without pain! READ MORE

  • How to reduce the pain due to ankle sprain?

    At home treatments can be attempted if the sprain is mild using the R.I.C.E. method. This stands for rest, ice, compression, and elevation: Rest: Continue to avoid activities until it improves Ice: Applying ice 20 minutes every 2 hours can help ease pain and reduce swelling. Over-the-counter Aleve will also help with the swelling. Compression: Gentle compression wrapping (such as an ACE bandage) helps reduce swelling and supports the ankle. Make sure the wrapping is not too tight or it can cause pain or even stop the blood flow. If symptoms persist, it could still just be a minor injury, but it could also be the initial sign of possible damage to tendons or ligaments. These conditions are easily evaluated and treated by a doctor with X-rays and digital diagnostic ultrasound to aid in a fast, accurate diagnosis. READ MORE

  • I am getting frequent ankle swelling. Can it be cured?

    Swelling after activity in the ankles can have many causes. One of the most common is the tendons and ligaments in the ankles being overworked with activity. It is important to stretch the tendons before the run. I would also recommend a good arch support to help to realign the ankles and to ensure that individual tendons and ligaments are not being placed under too much stress. If your foot is not functioning 100% properly, this is going to make the ankles have to work harder which leads to swelling READ MORE

  • Will I need surgery for a sprained ankle?

    If symptoms are still present 1 week after an ankle sprain, it is best to have it evaluated by a doctor. Your doctor will perform a thorough range of motion evaluation of the ankle and test each of the ligaments and tendons that support the ankle. An x-ray should be obtained just to ensure that there are no stress fractures in the bone. It is important to have the correct treatment for a sprained ankle to avoid surgery in the future. Most ankle sprains, with correct treatment, do not require surgery READ MORE

  • Can a podiatrist perform surgery?

    The type of surgical procedures performed by podiatrists may vary based on each individual's training, experience, and personal choice within their practice. A foot fracture is a common surgical procedure done by podiatrists in our area. READ MORE

  • I have twisted my ankle on a walk and don't know how to fix it?

    Treatment for an ankle sprain is most effective when started early. I recommend seeing a doctor to have it evaluated to make sure it heals correctly. In the meantime, It is important to minimize the swelling and pain by immobilizing the ankle as soon as possible. At home treatments can be attempted if the sprain is mild using the R.I.C.E. method. This stand for rest, ice, compression, and elevation. Rest: The first couple of days after the inury are the most important. This helps prevent further swelling and bruising. Ice: Applying ice 20 minutes every 2 hours can help ease pain and reduce swelling. Compression: Gentle compression wrapping (such as an ACE bandage) helps reduce swelling. Make sure the wrapping is not too tight or it can cause pain or even stop the blood flow. Elevation: Raising your leg above the level of your heart helps control pain and swelling. READ MORE

  • How long does it take for a broken foot to heal?

    Depending on what bone was broken and how badly. If it is a crack in the metatarsal bone it takes about 6-8 weeks to heal. There may still be some swelling in the foot on and off for a few months though. READ MORE

  • What are the symptoms of a bunion?

    A bunion is a bony bump at the base of the big toe. The main symptoms of bunions are stiffness in the big toe joint, pain, swelling and occasionally redness at the big toe joint. READ MORE

  • Will toenail fungus go away on its own?

    Unfortunately, toenail fungus doesn't go away by itself. And if you don't treat this fungal infection, there's a chance it could get worse and spread to the other toes. Your doctor will evaluate the toe, determine if it is a fungus or a damaged nail, and then give you a prescription medicine to apply to the toe to cure the fungus. READ MORE
