Conditions

Common foot problems, treated properly

If something is uncomfortable, changing, or simply hard to manage yourself, it is worth having it looked at. These are the conditions we see most often.

Thickened nails

Nails that have become hard, raised or difficult to cut, often after injury or with age. Reduced and shaped to a comfortable thickness.

Fungal nail infection

Discoloured, brittle or crumbling nails. Assessed, reduced, and treated with advice on managing the infection and preventing it spreading.

Ingrown toenails

A nail edge pressing into the surrounding skin, often painful and sometimes infected. Assessed with conservative treatment, and nail surgery discussed if clinically suitable.

Corns and callus

Areas of hard, built-up skin caused by pressure or friction. Carefully reduced, with advice on footwear and offloading to stop them returning.

Verrucae

Viral lesions on the sole of the foot, which can be painful under pressure. Assessed with treatment options based on presentation and suitability.

Cracked heels

Dry, splitting skin around the heel margin that can become sore or open. Reduced and rehydrated, with a routine to keep the skin intact.

Diabetic foot care

Diabetes changes the risk profile of the foot. Regular assessment of circulation, sensation and skin condition helps catch problems early.

Reduced mobility

If bending, reaching or seeing your feet is difficult, routine care becomes unsafe to do alone. Home visits make maintenance straightforward.

General foot pain

Aching, rubbing or pain on walking that has no obvious cause. Assessed to identify what is driving it, with a plan or onward referral where needed.

This page is general information, not medical advice. If you have a foot wound that is not healing, spreading redness, or sudden severe pain, contact your GP or NHS 111 promptly.
