Summer is the perfect season to indulge in outdoor activities, from strolls on the beach to long hikes in the countryside. As you ramp up your physical activity, it's important not to overlook the health of your feet. The last thing you want this summer is to be sidelined by foot pain or suffer from a foot injury. That's why a visit to a podiatrist should be on your summer checklist!
Foot injuries and pain can quickly ruin your summer fun. Whether it's a sprained ankle from a game of beach volleyball or a blister on your foot from long walks, these injuries can take weeks to heal, and in some cases, they can cause long-lasting damage to your feet. We recommend taking preventative measures and seek treatment as soon as possible if you do experience any foot pain or discomfort. By speaking to an expert at Absolute Foot Care, we can help you prevent foot injuries and pain and address any problems that do arise quickly and effectively. Here are some reasons why seeing a podiatrist should be on your summer checklist:
Preventive Care: We can assess the health of your feet, identify any potential problems and help prevent them from turning into serious issues. By getting regular check-ups, you can stay ahead of any foot problems and take preventive steps to avoid injuries.
Addressing Foot Pain: Jane and Dan can diagnose and treat a variety of foot conditions, including plantar fasciitis, heel pain, and Achilles tendonitis. These painful conditions can significantly impact your mobility and your ability to enjoy your summer activities. We can help you determine the cause of your pain and develop an effective treatment plan to get you back on your feet in no time.
Skin and Nail Health: Foot health isn't limited to pain and bone structure. Skin and nail problems like blisters, corns, calluses, and ingrown toenails are usually minor but can cause discomfort and pain or lead to infections. We can help you get rid of these issues for good.
Sports Injury Care: Summer activities increase the risk of foot and ankle injuries. If you're dealing with a sports-related foot or ankle injury, we can diagnose the issue, treat it, and offer advice on how to prevent it from happening again.
Whether you're planning to hike, run, swim or do any summer activities, you should prioritise the health of your feet.
