🩺 More Than Just Foot Care: A Life-Changing Catch

​I’m feeling incredibly humbled and proud today after receiving a beautiful thank you from a patient.
​Six weeks ago, during an initial assessment with a new patient, I detected an irregular heartbeat while performing a routine Doppler ultrasound on his feet. Recognising the potential risk, I immediately wrote to his GP to request an urgent investigation.

​The results were life-altering:

​The next day: He received an ECG.

​The diagnosis: Atrial Fibrillation (AF).

​The outcome: He was immediately started on anticoagulants to prevent a stroke.

​He came in today to say thank you, mentioning that even his doctor was impressed by the catch. With over 8 years of experience, stories like this remind me why a thorough, clinical approach to podiatry is so vital. We don't just look at your toes; we look at the whole person.
​Stay safe, stay healthy, and listen to your body!

💡 Tip 1: The "Mirror Check" Habit
​
Did you know that daily foot checks are a non-negotiable habit, especially if you have diabetes?

Keeping an eye on your feet can prevent small issues from becoming serious complications.
​What to look for:

​Redness or pressure marks.
​Blisters or calluses.
​Changes in nail colour or shape.

​Pro Tip: If you struggle to see the soles of your feet, use a mirror or ask a family member for help!

👣 "My feet feel fine, why do I need a check-up?" 👣

​It’s a question we hear a lot! Many people think a trip to the podiatrist is only necessary if you have a specific pain or an injury.
​However, as expert advice from the InDependent Diabetes Trust (IDDT) highlights, regular check-ups are vital even if your feet feel perfectly okay.
​Think of it like a "service" for your feet.
During a routine assessment, we don't just look at the surface; we look at the bigger picture of your health. We can assess:
​Sensation and Circulation: Ensuring your blood flow and nerves are working as they should.
​Joint Mobility: Checking how well your feet and ankles are moving to keep you active.
​Pressure Distribution: Identifying areas of high pressure before they turn into calluses or sores.
​Footwear: Making sure your shoes are helping, not hurting, your progress.
​Overall Risk Level: Giving you peace of mind and a plan for the future.
​Don't wait for a problem to start. Prevention is always better than a cure!

​Ready to give your feet the attention they deserve? 📞 Call us at 07856 420019 or 💬 DM us to book your assessment.
