General Skin and Nail Care
At Neat Feet Podiatry Care, we believe that healthy feet start with proper skin and nail care. Whether it’s keeping your nails trimmed and healthy, managing calluses, or treating stubborn verrucae, we’re here to provide expert care and advice. Our professional services ensure your feet remain pain-free, functional, and looking their best.
Nail Cutting and Care
Incorrect nail trimming can lead to complications such as ingrown toenails, infections, or thickened nails. Our podiatric services include:
Correct nail cutting to reduce the risk of ingrown nails.
Nail thinning for thickened or fungal nails.
Advice and care for brittle, discoloured, or problematic nails.
These services are especially valuable for individuals unable to perform safe nail care at home or those with high-risk health conditions.
Callus and Corn Removal
Calluses and corns are areas of thickened skin that develop in response to pressure or friction, often as a protective mechanism. While they may seem harmless, they can lead to discomfort, pain, or even complications if not properly managed, especially for individuals with underlying conditions like diabetes.
At Neat Feet Podiatry Care, we provide professional, safe, and effective treatment for calluses and corns. Our clinical approach includes:
Comprehensive Assessment: Identifying the underlying causes, such as biomechanical abnormalities, gait issues, or ill-fitting footwear, to prevent recurrence.
Pain-Free Debridement: Using sterile instruments, we carefully reduce thickened skin and remove corns without causing discomfort.
Prevention Strategies: Offering tailored advice on footwear, orthotics, and offloading techniques to reduce pressure and friction on high-risk areas.
Ongoing Management: For patients with recurring or severe calluses and corns, we develop personalised treatment plans to maintain healthy skin over time.
This targeted, clinical approach not only alleviates pain but also addresses the root causes to improve overall foot health and prevent further complications.
Verruca Treatment
Verrucae, or plantar warts, are caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV) infecting the outer layer of skin on the soles of the feet. These lesions are often characterised by pain, tenderness, or discomfort, particularly when weight-bearing, and may have a rough, grainy appearance with tiny black dots (clotted capillaries).
At Neat Feet Podiatry Care, we provide clinical expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of verrucae. Our approach includes:
Accurate Diagnosis: Differentiating verrucae from other skin conditions, such as corns or calluses, through a thorough clinical assessment.
Tailored Treatment Plans: Depending on the size, location, and duration of the lesion, we offer evidence-based treatments, including:
Debridement: The removal of thickened overlying skin to reduce discomfort and enhance the effectiveness of topical treatments.
Medicated Applications: The use of high-concentration keratolytics or antiviral agents to target the infection.
Advanced Therapies: We can recommend modern treatments for stubborn cases, such as cryotherapy or laser therapy, if necessary.
Education and Prevention: Advising on how to minimize the risk of spreading or re-infecting, including maintaining proper foot hygiene, wearing protective footwear in communal areas, and strengthening the immune system.
For persistent or recurrent verrucae, we carefully monitor progress and adapt treatment to ensure optimal results. Our goal is to alleviate discomfort, restore healthy skin, and prevent further complications.
