🌞 Warm weather = fungus season! 🦠👣

With more time at the pool, gym, or beach, fungal infections like tinea (athlete’s foot) and nail fungus are on the rise. 😬

🚫 Common culprits:
• Walking barefoot in public showers 🚿
• Sharing shoes or socks 👟🧦
• Sweaty feet stuck in closed shoes all day 🥵

💚 Keep your feet fresh & fungus-free:
✔️ Wear thongs in communal showers
✔️ Change socks daily
✔️ Keep feet clean and dry
✔️ Don’t share nail clippers, shoes, or socks

If you’ve noticed itchy, peeling skin or discoloured nails, don’t ignore it! ⚠️
Early treatment makes all the difference.

🌞 Don’t forget your feet this summer! 👣

When we think about skin checks and melanoma, most of us focus on our face, arms, and back… but did you know melanoma can also appear on your feet and under your toenails? 😮

Because our feet are often overlooked, melanomas here are more likely to go unnoticed until later stages — and early detection = better outcomes. 💪

🔎 What to look for:
• Dark streaks under toenails 🦶
• New spots or moles between the toes
• Changes in existing freckles or marks
• Wounds that don’t heal

☀️ This summer, add your feet to your regular skin check routine.
If you spot something unusual, don’t wait — get it checked!

💙 Protect your skin. Protect your future.
Your feet carry you everywhere — let’s keep them safe this summer. 👣

👩‍⚕️ Do you find yourself asking Dr Google any of these questions? 🤔💻

You’re not alone! These are super common — but instead of asking Dr Google, chat with your local podiatrist who can give advice tailored to your child’s needs 💙👣

❓ Why does my child have sore feet?
❓ Is my child’s development normal?
❓ My child is limping after playing sports — is this normal?
❓ Does my child need orthotics or innersoles?
❓ Does my child have growing pains… are they even real?
❓ What shoes are best for my child?
❓ My active kid is getting pain after sport — what’s causing it?
❓ My child has flat feet — what does this mean for their development?

👟 Kids’ feet grow and change quickly — getting the right advice early makes a big difference!

✅ Straps: A snug fit keeps your foot secure – no more toe-gripping shuffle walk 😅
✅ Cushion: Soft footbeds + firm support = happy heels after long walks 🦶💆‍♀️
🚫 Skip the $2 thongs – fun for the beach, not for your joints! 🏖️

Your feet carry you everywhere – give them the support they deserve this spring 🌷👣

Sore, swollen or infected around the nail?
That could be an ingrown toenail. And no - you don’t have to live with it.

Ingrown toenails are incredibly common and can be caused by tight shoes, incorrect nail trimming, or even genetics.
The good news? Relief is easier than you think.
Our podiatrists can provide gentle, professional nail care, pain relief and infection management, and minor procedures for long-term correction
