Cryotherapy
Conservative successful treatment can include: topical treatments, cryotherapy and vitamin supplements. The use of modern day laser technology is available for surgical removal of the wart. The laser usually causes less swelling, less tissue damage, and minimal bleeding. In most cases, patients heal quicker with less pain and less post-operative infections than traditional surgical excision.

Ultrasound
If a bunion is not severe, a different style of shoe may be suggested; or, you may be prescribed custom-made shoe inserts (orthotic devices) to control incorrect foot mechanics. Physical therapy such as whirlpools and ultrasound along with oral medications (to soothe the pain caused by inflammation) are other alternatives that may be used to remedy this condition. For severe bunions and conditions not responding to conservative treatment, outpatient surgical correction may be recommended. Surgical techniques have improved significantly in recent years. Within hours after surgery, you’ll be on your way home. Please schedule an appointment with Houslanger & Kassnove Podiatrists and learn all your treatment options.

Corns
Avoid applying cortisone cream to the feet unless you are sure of the conditions you are treating (such as contact dermatitis). Cortisone cream can make a fungus worse. Be careful in the sun, always put sun block on the tops of your feet and ankles. Visiting a Podiatrist can help relieve the discomfort of painful corns, calluses or thickened toenails. Please schedule an appointment with Houslanger & Kassnove Podiatrists and learn all your treatment options.
Calluses
While winter footwear kept your tootsies toasty, it’s time to smooth off that callused dry skin for the warm months ahead. Whenever feet are confined in boots and woolen socks for the winter air circulation decreases with subsequent increase in carbon dioxide, temperatures go up, and moisture retention on the skin occurs. That means you have some work to do to vanquish the calluses, dry skin and even athletes foot fungus that may have taken up residence during the cold weather.
Fungus
Leather and suede are your best bets as far as shoe material is concerned. Man-made materials will not conform as readily to your feet and do not allow your feet to “breathe”. This increases your chances of perspiration, odor, and fungus.

Achilles Tendonitis
Achilles tendonitis: is a medical condition that causes pain along the back of the leg near the heel. This happens when the Achilles tendon is constantly abused. This condition is common among athletes and middle age people who are actively engaged in sport activities.
Ankle Instability
Ankle sprains are an extremely common injury. They involve possible joint damage resulting in swelling, instability and pain, to more severe damage, such as torn ligaments, bruised cartilage and broken bones. Immediate treatment includes rest, ice, compression and anti-inflammatories. Unfortunately of untreated sprained ankles result in prolonged symptoms. These can include chronic pain or ankle instability including ankle arthritis, that makes a person prone to repetitive injury later in life.

Arthritic Foot Care
Bunions Problems
Patients with diabetes may suffer from peripheral neuropathy. When nerves are impaired, the feet can be injured without a moment of pain. Even a hot bath can be an occasion for a serious burn. Other early signs of potential foot problems are toenail pain, calluses, bunions, corns and burning soles. Poor blood circulation means that the feet have a harder time fighting infections and healing. The resulting complications can be as serious as ulcers, or in severe cases, amputation.
Calluses
Diabetic Foot Care
People with diabetes have many health concerns – it’s recommended that patients with diabetes regular podiatric medical examinations. Because of the distance between the heart and the feet, poor circulation and nerve impairment, which accompany diabetes, place the feet at increased risk. However, a regular program of hygiene, common sense, and proper podiatric foot care can keep people with diabetes on their feet and active.

Geriatric Foot Care
Hammertoes
Hammertoe is a deformity of the second, third, fourth or fifth toes. In this condition, the toe is bent at the middle joint, resembling a hammer. Left untreated, hammertoes can become inflexible and require surgery. People with hammertoe may have corns or calluses on the top of the toe or on the tip of the toe. They may also feel pain in their toes or feet and have difficulty finding comfortable shoes. Causes of hammertoe include improperly fitting shoes and muscle imbalance.
Heel Spurs
You have been diagnosed with plantar fascitis. This is a painful inflammatory condition that affects the heel and arch. It is caused by repetitive pulling on the wide band of connective tissue on the bottom of your feet. This often coincides with a weakened bone structure and altered gait. The body sometimes forms heel spurs, which are a build up of bone to reduce this pulling. This type of spur is usually helpful and not painful.
Heel Pain
Ingrown Toenails
Ingrown nails are nails whose corners or sides dig painfully into the soft tissue of nail grooves, often leading to irritation, redness, and swelling. Usually, toenails grow straight out. Sometimes, however, one or both corners or sides curve and grow into the flesh. The big toe is usually the victim of this condition, but other toes can also become affected. This can lead to painful infections and loss of mobility. If you suspect an infection due to an ingrown toenail, immerse the foot in a warm Epsom salt-water soak for 20 minutes and repeat twice a day for 3 days, if there is no improvement call our office.
Foot Warts
You have been diagnosed with having a plantar wart(s). Plantar is the medical term for the bottom surface of your foot. A wart is a viral condition, which occurs in the skin only. Warts on other parts of the body such as the hands often grow outward, but warts on the bottom of the foot are pushed inward by the weight of the body when walking. They often extend deep through the full thickness of the skin. These warts often are painful, and are very prone to spread. These two factors make treatment and follow up for this condition very important.
