Be Podiatry Treats Skin and Nail Conditions to Relieve Pain, Improve Mobility

Poor vision, mobility issues and the potential for disease are all instances in which individuals will benefit from the services of Be Podiatry, owned by Michael Ceravolo. The need for professional skin and nail care can occur at any age and becomes even more important after an injury and as people age.

Individuals are often reticent about seeking professional nail care, even when they know they need it. Some people regularly get ingrown toenails that results in pain, infection and toenail bleeding. It can result from a congenital condition, trauma to the toe, improper nail trimming, or overly tight footwear. The podiatrist Heidelberg will remove the portion of the nail causing the problem and can perform a procedure to permanently prevent the problem.

Toenail trauma is a common occurrence causing nail discoloration or blackening from bleeding beneath the nail. Trauma can result from a stubbed toe, sports-related injury, or even cancer. The podiatrist Northcote can make a definitive diagnosis and provide appropriate treatment.

Toenails that are thickened, discolored, or appear ragged and crumbly are signs of a foot fungus. Other signs include odor and brittle nails. It’s particularly prevalent in people with diabetes and compromised immune systems. Some are pre-disposed to fungal infections. There are medications and self-care measures that can be taken, but it often returns. The fungi can spread from the nail to the foot, then it’s commonly known as athlete’s foot.

Corns, calluses, blisters, foot ulcers and cracked heels are all skin conditions that need care. Some are painful, while others can lead to more serious conditions. Corns and calluses can be reduced or remediated with proper footwear or orthotics. Foot ulcers require specialized care through podiatry Preston. Cracked heels can result from wearing open-toed shoes, obesity, and excess pressure on the pad of the foot.

Be Podiatry provides therapies and solutions for every type of foot condition. Skin and nail care is critical for maintaining mobility and preventing dangerous infections. The practice offers care for adults and children to address a wide variety of conditions and return people to pain free activities.
