Podiatrist Foot Wear Advice

As a podiatrist we understand selecting the correct shoe for your foot type can be a difficult task. And even more complex when wanting a good shoe to compliment orthotics, or medical issues like diabetes. With a multitude of brands and types of shoes available it can become confusing to find one tailored for you. As health Care Professionals, podiatrists are qualified to evaluate and identify foot problems, as such we can recommend the correct foot wear to suit your needs.

Chilblains

As a podiatrist we do see from time to time a flare up with certain foot related conditions but after seeing many cases of chilblains coming through the clinic which can affect women children and the elderly I wanted to add to a recent short post to our AMA Podiatry face book page. “With Winter still here we are seeing an alarming increase in Chilblains”. These are lesions associated with vaso-spasm of the capillary beds and result in cell death.
