How We Can Help

• We offer treatment & advice for common conditions like; painful/ neurovascular corns, calluses, athletes' feet, blisters, chilblains, nail pathologies including fungal nails, ingrown toenails, mild wounds & ulcerations. 

•  We carry out a full neurovascular assessment to check the nerve and blood vessels in the feet, treat, advise, and refer where necessary. 

• During this appointment, the podiatrist will examine your feet, knee, and lower back, and carry out a gait analysis. A gait analysis looks at the way you walk and measures where your feet land with each step. This will be done by watching you walk on our in-clinic treadmill with a gait camera stationed behind you to capture every moment during your gait cycle. Following this, the podiatrist would come up with a diagnosis and management plan. 

                   Common conditions: Morton's neuroma, tendinopathy, plantar fasciitis, ankle sprain, joint pain.

• An ingrowing toenail develops when the sides of the toenail grow into the surrounding skin. The skin becomes red, swollen, and tender. Ingrowing toenails most commonly affect the big toenail but can affect the other toes too. The medical term for an ingrowing toenail is onychocryptosis. 
• The most common causes include poorly cut toenails, ill-fitting shoes, trauma, nail infections, and certain inherited shapes of the nail plate. 

•  Podopaediatrics is an area of podiatric medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and management of foot disorders in children. Biomechanical abnormalities in a child can cause long-term damage to the foot. This is because the feet of young children are soft and pliable, so abnormal pressures can easily cause the foot to deform.
