Flexible flatfoot is most common in young children and is characterized by an arch that disappears when the child stands up (so the feet appear flat) but reappears when sitting. The condition usually occurs in both feet. Most children do not experience any symptoms from the condition, but those who do may feel pain or cramping in the feet or legs while walking. In most cases, children outgrow the disorder without treatment by the age of 5. If your child does experience symptoms, they can usually be alleviated by wearing supportive shoes and custom-made shoe orthotics for arch support.

While cracked heels might appear to be more of a cosmetic problem, left unchecked and untreated, they can cause pain and risk becoming infected. During the winter months, our skin is drier and therefore needs more moisture. Apply a foot cream or heel balm on a regular basis during the winter months.

Keep your feet consistently warm .... When the temperature drops, your feet are not immune. Ensure when at home you are insulating your feet through good quality, natural fibre socks and at least some form of warm footwear – even fluffy slippers. Apply a moisturiser from the heels to toes in a circular motion – this helps keep them warm but also helps keep the skin healthy!

Retronychia is generally caused by some form of trauma affecting the proximal section of the toenail. Due to the trauma with retronychia you often get a new nail growing underneath the old nail and this pushes the old nail up into the proximal nail fold, causing redness and inflammation. Because of the trauma the underlying nail matrix is often damaged so a new nail does not grow out. Hence a tell tale sign of retronychia is when the nail is not growing. Antibiotics will help settle any associated infection but it will not fix the problem as it is not addressing the cause. To successfully treat retronychia you may need to have the damaged toenail removed.

Foot numbness can cause big problems for people with diabetes. Complications of diabetes include poor circulation and poor sensation that can lead to serious skin ulcers. All people with diabetes should have their feet checked at least once a year by a doctor or podiatrist. This is important to detect problems early and to prevent ulcers and other complications.

Fun Fact .... Ticklish Feet is a good sign! .... With almost 8,000 nerves, it’s no wonder that feet win the award for “Most Ticklish Body Part.” But don’t lament the tickles–having ticklish feet means that all those nerves are firing correctly. Feet that don’t respond to a soft tickle could indicate a problem like neuropathy, or damage to the nerves and tissue of the foot.
