Common Foot Conditions Treated by Podiatrists
Podiatrists address a wide range of foot and lower limb conditions, including:
1. Plantar Fasciitis
A common cause of heel pain, plantar fasciitis occurs due to inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue running along the bottom of the foot. Symptoms include sharp pain in the heel, especially in the morning.
2. Bunions
Bunions are bony protrusions that develop at the base of the big toe, often caused by improper footwear or genetic predisposition. They can lead to discomfort, swelling, and difficulty walking.
3. Ingrown Toenails
An ingrown toenail occurs when the nail grows into the surrounding skin, causing pain, redness, and infection. Podiatrists offer treatments ranging from conservative care to minor surgical procedures.
4. Athlete’s Foot
Athlete’s foot is a fungal infection that causes itching, redness, and peeling of the skin between the toes. Proper hygiene and antifungal treatments can help manage this condition.
5. Diabetic Foot Complications
People with diabetes are at risk of developing serious foot problems, including ulcers and infections. Regular podiatric check-ups are crucial in preventing complications and ensuring proper foot care.
