Don't Hide Your Toes This Season!
Is it just "thick nails" or a fungal infection?

Key Signs to Watch For:
* Discolouration: Yellow, brown, or white spots.
* Texture: Brittle, crumbly, or ragged edges.
* Shape: Thickening or distorting of the nail bed.
* Debris: Build-up under the nail.

Fungal nails can be stubborn, but you don't have to tackle them alone. From topical treatments to professional debridement, our podiatry team at Kin Body & Sole is here to help you regain your confidence and step out in sandals again!

Corn or Verruca? What’s the Difference?

At Kin Body and Sole, we see these two foot concerns all the time — but they’re not the same thing! Here’s how to tell them apart:

Corns
Corns are areas of hard, thickened skin caused by pressure or friction — often from footwear or the way you walk.

Key features:
Usually not contagious
Feel like a deep, hard lump
Pain is sharp when pressed directly
Common on toes or pressure points

Verrucae (Plantar Warts)
Verrucae are viral skin infections caused by the HPV virus.

Key features:
Contagious (you can catch them from surfaces like pools/gym floors)
Often have tiny black dots (they’re clotted capillaries)
Pain is worse when squeezed from the sides
Can appear anywhere on the sole of the foot

Why it Matters
Because they’re caused by different things, they require different treatments. At Kin Body and Sole, we can assess your feet and recommend the best approach — whether that’s gentle removal, pressure relief, or verruca‑specific treatment.

Friday Foot Tip!

Your toenails need air… but not the way you think!

Did you know?

Your nails don’t actually breathe — but the skin around them does.
Wearing tight, non‑breathable shoes all day traps moisture, creating the perfect environment for fungal infections.

Today’s tip:

Give your feet a little weekend freedom by choosing:
Breathable shoes
Moisture‑wicking socks — e.g. merino wool or bamboo sport socks (they pull sweat away from the skin!)
And letting your feet air out at home

Your nails (and your comfort) will thank you!

Success Story: Back on His Feet!
​At Kin Body & Sole, we know that even the smallest issues can have a massive impact on your quality of life. We recently helped a 19-year-old client who was struggling with a painful ingrown toenail on his right big toe.
​It wasn't just a minor nuisance—the pain was constant and starting to affect his daily activities and mobility. After an assessment, we decided a Partial Nail Avulsion (PNA) was the best permanent solution.
​
The Journey to Recovery
​Here is how we moved from constant pain to a clean bill of health:
​
The Procedure: We performed a minor surgical procedure to remove the offending nail edge and applied phenol to ensure the problematic piece of nail doesn't grow back.
​
At-Home Care: He was sent home with a professional dressing pack and a clear, easy-to-follow regime.
​
In-Clinic Support: We didn't just leave him to it! He returned for regular follow-up dressing appointments so we could monitor his progress.
​
The Result: Within 8 weeks, he was fully healed and back to living life pain-free.
​
Stop "Managing" the Pain.
If you’re limping through your day or avoiding certain shoes because of an ingrown nail, you don't have to just "deal with it." Our clinical treatments are designed to get you back to your best as quickly as possible.
