Diabetic Foot Care

Many people living with diabetes are unaware that they are at a greater risk of developing problems with their feet.

Raised blood glucose levels over time can damage the small blood vessels that supply the nerves in your feet, if these nerves become damaged it can result in loss of sensation in the feet, this is known as neuropathy.

The loss of sensation in your feet increases your risk of injury.

The damaged blood vessels also reduce the blood supply to your feet affecting your ability to heal, putting you at higher risk of tissue breakdown, infection and ulceration.

Although living with diabetes puts you at a greater risk of developing foot problems, most of these can be prevented with good foot care.

At The Foot Place we are able to provide specialist Diabetic Foot Care treatments and Diabetic Assessments. Working together we will help you manage and develop your own foot care routine.

Specialist Foot Care Treatments

Swift

Cryotherapy

Swift Microwave Therapy

Cryotherapy

We specialise in verrucae, and offer a number of treatments, including Swift Microwave Therapy and Cryotherapy.

Swift is a revolutionary new treatment that has been developed in Scotland and is a world-first. Up to 80% of patients see a complete resolution of stubborn verrucae after an average of four visits. What's more you will see a reduction in pain after each treatment, there is no post-operative pain, no need for dressings, and no need to keep the foot dry.

Verrucae are warts on the soles of the feet caused by the HPV (Human Papilloma Virus)

These lesions can be extremely stubborn and difficult to clear. Cryosurgery in podiatric practice is a technique that utilises extreme cold to destroy verrucae tissue on the foot.

At The Foot Place, we offer Cryo IQ a state-of-the-art cryosurgery technology used to freeze verruccae tissue.

Nail Surgery

An ingrown toenail develops when the side of the toenail grows into the surrounding skin, which most commonly affects the big toe on either one or both sides. The nail curls and pierces the skin which becomes red, swollen, tender and if left untreated can become infected. Depending on the severity of your symptoms surgery may be recommended.

At The Foot Place our podiatrists can help with this common issue by removing part or all of the toenail and treating the area to help prevent the nail from regrowing.

Toenail surgery is commonley carried out when the symptons are persistent and have not responed to other non-invasive treatments.
