Why consult a podiatrist?

Consulting a podiatrist is essential to effectively diagnose and treat many foot and ankle problems. You should consider seeing a podiatrist if you suffer from pain in your heels, soles or toes, ingrown toenails, corns and calluses, plantar warts or if you have difficulty walking due to deformities or injuries. Podiatrists also specialize in the prevention of sports injuries, the management of diabetic feet , and the prescription of custom foot orthotics to improve posture and relieve joint pain. Practicing X-rays and ultrasounds, your podiatrist can diagnose foot and ankle fractures, evaluate tendonitis and ankle sprains. A podiatrist can help you regain better mobility and prevent long-term complications. Whether you have acute or chronic pain, or are looking for preventive care, it is important to consult a podiatrist to receive appropriate treatment and prevent your condition from worsening.
