Podiatry
Heel Pain
The plantar fascia is a broad band of fibrous tissue located along the bottom surface of the foot that runs from the heel to the forefoot. Excessive stretching of the plantar fascia, usually due to over-pronation (flat feet), an excessively high arch, or increased body weight, causes inflammation and pain in either the heel and/or mid arch.
Warts
Warts are often mistaken for other conditions such as corns or calluses, but a wart is actually a viral infection which has invaded the skin.
Who are podiatrists?
Podiatrists are university educated foot health professionals. They specialise in all concerns with foot health and are the first point of call for diagnosis and treatment of foot pain and pain related to foot posture and dynamic function.
