FAQ
Q1: I have a problem with my ankle, should I refer to a podiatrist of orthopedic surgeon?
A1: Podiatrists' treatments usually focus solely on complex structures of the feet and they have more experience in treating foot and ankle disorders surgically and non surgically. However, if a mobility issue is complex and involves multiple large joints, it will be better for you to see an orthopedist instead.
Q2: I am diabetic, is it true that I cannot remove callouses myself?
A2: Yes. Please avoid remove callouses yourself as to avoid burns and infections. Either way, it is still best to see a podiatrist for best treatment and orthotic.
Q3: I seem to have this burning sensation on the ball of my foot, is that normal?
A3: That could possibly be a symptom of enlarged nerve or neuroma. Usually, if that occurs, your nerve may be normal but a tendon or inflamed joint may have pressed the nerve. Seeing a podiatrist will help.
