There are many people who are not able to take proper care of their feet, for example elderly and disabled persons. One of the most common sites for foot problems and pain are the toenails. First, use a non- soap anti-bacterial cleanser as your ONLY foot cleanser to cleanse away skin bacteria.
However, Staph Infections of the Foot
can be present at birth and can also be caused by injuries to the foot. While sitting with your feet flat on the floor, raise your heels and hold for five seconds. If the corn or callus is between the toes it can be soft and painful. Try using toe spacers or toe sleeves from a department or drug store. However, the doctor may have to thin down the corn or callus if it doesn't go away.
Symptoms include redness, swelling and pain which may be present along the inside margin of the foot. The patient's feet may become too wide to fit into their normal size shoes and they may experience moderate to severe discomfort which may occur when the patient is wearing tight shoes. Subsequently, this may cause a corn on top of the 2nd toe. Other foot conditions can occur such as in growing toenails and in severe cases the bunion joint may have a fluid filled sack called a BURSITIS. Abnormal foot function, excessive pronation. If a chiropodist/ podiatrist uses this term he is referring to excessive rolling in of the foot at the ankle joint while you are walking. If one leg is longer then the other, the longer leg is more inclined to develop a bunion. Our bunion products range treat every aspect of a bunion.
Decreasing or changing activities, losing excess weight, and improving the proper fitting of shoes are all important measures to decrease this common source of foot pain. Modification of footwear includes shoes with a raised heel and better arch support. The orthotic prevents excess pronation and lengthening of the plantar fascia and continuedtearing of this structure.
When a corn develops apply a compeed plaster which are soft gel plasters that mould to the skin and once removed pulls the core of the corn out. When hammer toes and bunion corns and callous are present the best solution is a 2 in 1 bunion protector and corrector which are a combination of a toe spreader and a bunion shield moulded in one support. These successfully stop friction and correct the bunion into its natural position allowing the Orthotics
to sit correctly. This makes it harder to straighten the toe.
