Many people think of podiatry as trimming nails and treating calluses. In reality, podiatrists diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions affecting the feet, ankles, and lower legs.
That includes sports injuries, bunions and heel pain, diabetic foot care, wound care, nerve disorders like peripheral neuropathy, and mobility problems such as foot drop.
Because your feet are affected by the rest of your health, a good podiatrist works closely with your primary care physician, endocrinologist, and other specialists, which is one of the advantages of a multi-specialty group.
