Tooronga & Kooyong Podiatry have gone global 🌍

Just kidding… but you may have been wondering where Katherine was over the end of February 🤔

Katherine has just returned from completing volunteer work in Tanzania! This work included providing podiatric care to young school children, and participating in a bunch of educational, creative and recreational activities at the school!

An interesting part about this experience for Katherine was “…seeing healthcare in a different country” opening eyes to different health circumstances around the world.

We’re happy to have Kath back ☺️

As summer comes to an end, the Autumn weather arrives 🍂

Though we are ready for a cool change in weather, make sure your feet are ready too!

Seasonal temperatures from hot to cooler can bring about:
*Dry and cracked skin – due to cooler, drier air and indoor heating usage
*Increased risk of fungal infections – from closed shoes trapping moisture.
*Pain flare ups – like plantar fasciitis, ingrown toenails, or blisters from transitioning into closed toe shoes 😬

To combat this, this autumn let’s try:
*Using Walkers UREA cream, stocked at Tooronga and Kooyong Podiatry to relieve those cracked and dry feet 🧴
*Letting our feet breathe when possible (quite literally kick those shoes off after work!)
*Booking an appointment with one of Tooronga and Kooyong Podiatry’s podiatrists to address your concerns regarding your precious feet 🦶🏽

We look forward to preparing your feet for the cooler months ahead!

What is Peripheral Neuropathy 🤔

Peripheral Neuropathy is a condition caused by damage to peripheral nerves, leading to numbness, tingling, pain, weakness, or loss of sensation, usually in the hands and feet.
Unlike Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) (as explained in the last post), Peripheral Neuropathy is associated with the nerve functioning of the body, rather than the blood supply around the body!

So what does this have to do with your feet?

Peripheral neuropathy affects the feet by causing numbness, tingling, burning pain, reduced sensation, muscle weakness, and increased risk of injury or ulcers🦶🏽

Experience the symptoms mentioned or knowingly have Peripheral Neuropathy? Book in to see one of our knowledgeable Podiatrist’s to assist you in managing the condition.

Clean Up Australia Day ♻️

At Tooronga and Kooyong Podiatry, we are strong contributors to keeping our planet clean!

Keeping our clinic clean makes not only the workplace a more sterile and tidier environment, but it also adds to achieving consistent sustainable habits for Australia, and therefore the world 🌏

Some tips on how to participate in cleaning up Australia:
*Join a local clean up group to help pick up rubbish in your community
*Consider how you manage your household waste such as food scraps and recycling
*Participate in initiative strategies such as the Container Deposit Scheme (Receive a 10-cent refund for every eligible drink container you return, and you can choose to keep the refund or donate it to your favourite cause)

Visit https://www.cleanup.org.au/ to see more information

What is Peripheral Vascular Disease 🤔
 
Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) is a condition in which narrowed or blocked blood vessels reduce blood flow to the limbs 🩸

Its symptoms can present both moderately and severely, for example (but not limited to):

Moderate symptoms may include:
*Coldness in your lower legs or feet
*Brittle and slow-growing toenails

Whereas severe symptoms may include:
*The foot appears blue
*Ulcers appear
*You experience shortages of blood supply to the lower limb, causing numbness, tingling, and a white and cold appearance and feeling.

So what does this have to do with your feet?

If you haven’t already guessed it, the feet are a component of your lower limbs, which is what PVD directly impacts. It affects the feet by reducing blood flow, causing pain, coldness, numbness, slow-healing wounds, skin changes, and increased risk of ulcers or infection.
 
If you experience any of the symptoms above or knowingly have PVD, our Podiatrists are equipped with the knowledge and skills to perform routine checks and escalate treatment is necessary 🦶🏽

What is Rheumatoid Arthritis 🤔

According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, around 514,000 (2.0%) of people in Australia are living with rheumatoid arthritis! As a member of the arthritis family, Rheumatoid Arthritis is the second most common form of arthritis, after Osteoarthritis.
 
Rheumatoid Arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the joints, causing inflammation, pain, swelling, and progressive joint damage. This form of arthritis is more commonly seen in those aged 65+ and is greater in females than males.
 
So what does this have to do with your feet?

Rheumatoid arthritis affects the feet by causing joint inflammation, pain, swelling, stiffness, deformities, and difficulty walking or standing. This pain can limit being able to perform daily tasks and activities…

Which is why here at Tooronga and Kooyong Podiatry want to assist in managing Rheumatoid Arthritis in our patients. We want you to lead happy, healthy and capable lives 🦶🏽

What is Diabetes Mellitus 🤔

According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, more than 1.3 million Australians are living with diabetes! Diabetes is also amongst one of the most common chronic conditions in Australia.

Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by high blood glucose levels due to insufficient insulin production, impaired insulin action, or both.

There are two main forms of diabetes, being Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes as defined by Diabetes Australia:
*Type 1: the body’s own immune system destroys the beta cells in the pancreas which produce insulin.
*Type 2: the body becomes resistant to the normal effects of insulin and gradually loses the capacity to produce enough insulin in the pancreas. More commonly genetically predisposed.

So what does this have to do with your feet?🦶🏽

Diabetes mellitus can damage nerves and blood vessels in the feet, leading to loss of sensation, poor circulation, slow healing, and increased risk of ulcers and infection.

At Tooronga and Kooyong Podiatry, we have the education, skills and equipment to perform your yearly diabetes check up, and will organise a yearly reminder to ensure you keep on top of your diabetes management.
