Pediatric Care
The size and shape of your baby's feet change quickly during their first year and the foot's bone structure is well-formed by the time your child reaches age 7 or 8. As children's feet are forming it is important to have them evaluated for any abnormalities such as Pigeon Toe (intoe), Out Toe (child walks like a duck), flatfeet, overlapping toes or obvious skin disorders like warts, rash or deformed nails. If evaluated early, problems are greatly reduced or eliminated.

Corns
Before you start a fitness program, you should consult a physician for a complete physical, and a podiatrist for a foot exam. Most people don't realize the tremendous pressure that is put on your feet while exercising or playing sports. Foot problems contribute to pain in knees, hips and lower back. Other conditions that exercise may have on your feet are Athletes Feet - a skin disease caused by fungus; blisters â€“ caused by skin friction and moisture as well as corns and calluses. For fitness success make sure to wear proper athletic shoes as well as a well-cushioned sock for reinforcement. A podiatrist can help you select the right athletic shoe for your type of sport or exercise.
Calluses
Fungus
Inspect your feet regularly. Pay attention to changes in color and temperature of your feet. Look for thick or discolored nails (a sign of developing fungus), and check for cracks or cuts in the skin. Peeling or scaling on the soles of feet could indicate athlete's foot. Any growth on the foot is not considered normal.

General Podiatry
Dr. Richard Steiner is a graduate of the New York College of Podiatric Medicine and has been practicing for over 35 years. He comes from a family of podiatrists that include his father and brother. They practiced together for over 20 years in the Fordham Road section of The Bronx.
Achilles Tendonitis
Orthotics are shoe inserts that are intended to correct an abnormal or irregular, walking pattern. Orthotics takes various forms and is constructed of various materials. The purpose is to improve foot function and minimize stress forces that could ultimately cause foot deformity and pain. Almost anyone can achieve some benefit from an orthotic and can be made to fit most types of shoes styles or sneakers. Common reasons why orthotics are prescribed are flat feet or high arch foot, runners injuries, diabetic foot, plantar fascitis, heel spur syndrome, bunions, Achilles tendonitis to name a few. The goals of treatment are to provide the patient with support, stability, cushioning and alignment necessary to keep the feet and lower body comfortable, healthy and pain-free.
Ankle Sprain
Podiatrists specialize in diagnosing and treating disorders of the foot, ankle, and lower leg. Podiatrists have expertise in orthopedics, radiography, sports medicine, dermatology, and surgery. Some conditions that podiatrists treat are ankle injuries, bunions, calluses, neuromas, running injuries, and toe deformities. They are often the first health professionals to diagnose vascular problems that have previously gone unrecognized. Podiatrists also contribute significantly to the areas of diabetic foot care, arthritic foot care, and wound healing.
Arthritic Foot Care
Bunions Problems
Most foot surgery can be performed properly and safely in a podiatrist's office and the patient will be in and out on the same day. The correction of bunions and hammertoes, ingrown toenails, removal of warts and soft-tissue benign tumors, and heel spurs comprise the bulk of surgical treatments recommended by podiatrists. Podiatric physicians look upon surgery as a last resort and they generally exhaust all avenues of medical treatment before they recommend surgical intervention. Usually a local anesthetic is used to numb an area of the foot; however, the doctor may prescribe pre-operative medication to help the patient relax. To learn more about the types of foot problems that may result in surgery, refer to our Patient Education link.

Hammertoes
Women more than men are at risk for injuries and ailments as a result of wearing high heels and tight fitting shoes. A study conducted by the American Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Society found that nine out of 10 women wear shoes that are too small for their feet, eight out of 10 women say their shoes are painful, and more than seven out of 10 women have developed a bunion, hammertoe, or other painful foot deformity.

Ingrown Toenails
Trim toenails straight across, but not too short. Be careful not to cut nails in corners or on the sides; it can lead to ingrown toenails. Persons with diabetes, poor circulation, or heart problems should not treat their own feet because they are more prone to infection.
