Pediatric Foot Care

Young children’s feet are very resilient. Foot deformities that weren’t present at birth can result from a variety of factors including tight covers or shoes that restrict foot growth and development. It’s imperative that shoes be flexible and fitted properly.

As they age, be aware of your child’s walking patterns which may signal a concern. In addition, foot pain or swelling without explanation could be a sign of a serious condition and should not be ignored.

Diabetic Foot Care

Diabetes is a chronic condition that is caused by high glucose levels in the blood. This is prompt with high risk to the health of the liver, eyes, kidneys and blood vessels. One of the potential side effects of diabetes is a weakened immune system rendering the body unable to effectively fight off infections. Additionally, the disease often leads to serious problems with the feet. Certain signs that are noticeable that you have diabetic foot are:

Burning, strong tingling, and acute pain

Numbness

Foot shape changes

Color change of your foot

Blisters, Ingrown Toenails, Sores, and Ulcers on your Foot

Excessive corn and calluses
