Hard skin, corns and callus build up over high pressure areas on the foot. They can be caused by your footwear and/or your foot anatomy. Treatment includes removal of the hard skin/corn/callus using skilled scalpel work. Advice will be given during the appointment to improve the condition of your feet and help prevent the re-occurrence of the problem.
An ingrown toe nail is one that pierces the skin surrounding the nail. It can be extremely painful. In more severe cases, it can cause pus and bleeding requiring antibiotics. The podiatrist will remove the part of the nail which has pierced the skin and give advice with regard to nail cutting, footwear and future care/ treatment.
Thickened fungal nails can be thinned down to improve their appearance and comfort. Advice regarding treatment will be given during the appointment.
Verrucae are warts which usually develop on the sole of the foot. Most will resolve themselves within 18 months to 2 years. Others, particularly those on weight-bearing areas can be painful often due to the buildup of hard skin over the surface.

Advice will be given during your appointment to improve the condition of your feet and help prevent the re-occurrence of the condition.
We will discuss any health-related issues and concerns and ask a number of questions to assist diagnosis.
Once the examination is complete, your treatment options will be discussed prior to starting treatment.
Following treatment further advice will be given and follow up appointments made if required.
This involves an assessment of foot and lower limb and how it functions. Depending on the findings, we may recommend stretching and strengthening exercises, footwear advice and/or orthotic support to improve function and reduce discomfort.
Nail surgery is a permanent solution to ingrowing toenails and other painful nail conditions. It involves the removal of part (partial) or all (total) of the problematic nail. The procedure is carried out under a local anaesthetic. This procedure should take approximately an hour, following which you will be advised to rest with your feet up for the day. It is not usually necessary to take time off work but this will depend on your occupation.
Faulkner’s Needling is an advanced treatment for stubborn or long-standing verrucae (plantar warts). It stimulates the body’s natural immune response to fight the HPV virus from within, making it particularly suitable for verrucae that have not responded to other treatments. The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic.
Wilde-Pedique toenail reconstruction helps restore the appearance of damaged, thickened or unsightly toenails. Using a specialist flexible gel, the nail is carefully rebuilt to create a natural, smooth and healthy-looking finish. Ideal following nail damage, fungal infection or surgery.
ABPI and toe pressure tests are simple, non-invasive assessments of blood flow to the feet and lower legs. They help identify circulation problems such as peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and assess blood flow where there are concerns about wound healing or vascular health.
Our podiatry team can assess foot infections promptly and provide appropriate treatment where antibiotics are clinically indicated. Specialist assessment helps ensure your infection receives the right care without unnecessary delays.
Regular foot checks are especially important if you have diabetes, as diabetes can affect circulation and nerve sensation, making it easier for problems to go unnoticed. We will provide a comprehensive assessment of the neurological and vascular supply to the lower limb and will include advice in caring for your feet when you have diabetes.

At your first podiatry appointment, we will: Take a detailed history of your problem. Take your medical history. Ask you about your lifestyle/ personal circumstances. Examine your feet and legs to diagnose your problem. Examine your shoe style and fit. Discuss a treatment plan with you and this could include ongoing general foot care, a referral to your GP or education and advice
Women have about 4 times as many foot ailments than men and this is mainly caused by wearing high heels. You can help your feet by limiting the time you wear shoes with heels over 5cm and alternate these shoes with good quality trainers.
Toenails should be trimmed straight across. They should be just slightly longer than the tips of your toes. Cutting nails at the corners or edges can cause ingrown toenails.
Orthotics are custom-made shoe inserts that are designed to prevent abnormal foot motion. They help your foot muscles and tendons to perform more efficiently and can be used to treat flat feet, high arches, heel pain and bunions. They can also stop callus from forming.
There are 52 bones in your feet, making up around a quarter of the bones in your body. Your feet contain 66 joints, 214 ligaments and 38 muscles.
