Corns or callus develop when there is pressure and friction on your feet that may be caused by footwear and daily activity. Corns are typically smaller, more defined, and often painful, while calluses are larger, less defined, and usually found on the soles of the feet. When these become too thick or uncomfortable, they can lead to discomfort or even an infection. Regular treatment and appropriate advice can help manage and prevent these conditions, ensuring your feet stay healthy and pain-free.

 

Itchy skin can be caused by dryness, fungal infections, allergies, or skin conditions like eczema. A podiatrist can help identify the underlying cause and advise on effective treatments. Whether through topical creams, antifungal medications, or recommending proper skincare routines, your podiatrist can address the issue and offer relief.

A verruca is a small, contagious wart that typically appears on the soles of the feet, often causing discomfort when walking. It is caused by a viral infection that usually clears by itself. However, if it does persist or cause discomfort then one treatment your podiatrist may provide is Verrutop, a powerful, fast-acting solution designed to target and treat the verruca. Verrutop works by breaking down the infected tissue and promoting healing, providing a gentle yet effective way to remove the verruca with minimal discomfort. This best works for small or mild verruca.
