Ingrown Toenails (Conservative & Permanent Removal
An ingrown toenail is a condition where a whole nail, or a portion, penetrates the skin’s surface. This condition can either be genetic, caused by trauma or incurvated nails, being overweight or the result of poorly fitting footwear. Our Salamander Bay podiatrists have several ways to treat ingrown toenails, depending on the severity.
The use of conservative treatment, which involves cutting ingrown toenails in a specific way and managing this condition by wearing the right footwear, can help alleviate this condition in the future.
Surgical correction or removal is another way to treat more critical ingrown toenail conditions. Sometimes only a small portion of the nail needs to be removed with surgery after a local anaesthetic is applied.
Shock Wave Therapy
Shock wave therapy available.
Callus Removal
Biomechanical Assessment & Orthotic Therapy
Malalignment of your body can often result in health concerns such as joint pain, which, over time, can become a permanent and debilitating condition. Biomechanical assessment is a medical procedure used to diagnose any alignment issues, enabling the imbalances to corrected. This type of assessment involves analysing the medical history of a patient, before undertaking postural alignment testing, which often incorporates gait analysis.
The treatment used to correct postural alignment issues is called Orthotic Therapy. Foot orthotics are used to treat a broad range of conditions including: plantar fasciitus, shin splints, flat feet, bursitis and knee pain.
Our podiatrists specialise in Biomechanical Assessment and Orthotic Therapy.
Diabetes Assessments & Reports
It is vital for diabetics to have yearly Diabetes Assessments, to ensure that the condition is not restricting blood flow to the feet, or causing any nerve damage.
See our Footprints at the Bay podiatrists for an annual diabetes assessment and report, to avoid any future feet complications.
Vascular Assessments & Reports
To diagnose this condition, podiatrists offer a vascular assessment, which incorporates analysing a patient’s medical history, as well as performing tests on the feet and legs. After the assessment is complete a report is then provided.
Our podiatrists offer comprehensive vascular assessments and reports.
