🩹 The Importance of Proper Wound Care 🩹

Did you know that even a small cut or blister can become a serious problem if not treated correctly? Proper wound care is essential to prevent infections, speed up healing, and protect overall health.

Here are some key points to remember:

✅ Clean the wound gently with mild soap and water - avoid harsh scrubbing.
✅ Keep it covered with a sterile dressing to protect against bacteria.
✅ Change dressings regularly to keep the wound clean and dry.
✅ Watch for warning signs like redness, swelling, pus, or increasing pain.
✅ Seek professional care for wounds that are deep, not healing, or if you have conditions such as diabetes or poor circulation.

At Numi Foot Med, we specialise in wound management, with a focus on diabetic and geriatric patients. Our goal is to prevent complications, promote faster healing, and keep you on your feet.

💡 Remember: Early treatment can make the difference between quick healing and long-term problems.

👣 Say Goodbye to Corns & Calluses 👣

Do you struggle with painful corns or hard calluses on your feet?
These common foot problems may seem small, but they can cause a lot of discomfort and even affect the way you walk.

At Numi Foot Med, we offer safe and effective treatments to:

✅ Gently remove corns and calluses
✅ Relieve pressure and pain
✅ Prevent recurrence with proper foot care advice
✅ Improve overall comfort and mobility

⚠️ Important: Never try to cut or remove corns and calluses at home - this can lead to infections, especially for patients with diabetes or circulation issues.

💡 Healthy feet = Happy steps!

🦶✨ Why Foot & Wound Care Matters ✨🦶

Your feet carry you through life - but they are also one of the most overlooked areas when it comes to healthcare. Small wounds, cuts, or blisters may seem minor, but without the right care they can quickly become serious.

⚠️ Did you know?

People with diabetes, circulation problems, or neuropathy are at much higher risk of developing foot wounds.

A small untreated blister can develop into an ulcer or infection within days.

Proper foot care reduces the chance of long-term complications, hospital stays, and even amputations.

✅ Good foot & wound care includes:

Regular foot checks (daily if you’re diabetic)

Cleaning and protecting even the smallest wound

Wearing proper footwear to prevent pressure points and injuries

Seeking professional podiatry care for any wound that does not heal quickly

At Numi Foot Med, we provide specialized wound care and foot health management - from prevention to advanced treatment. Early care can mean the difference between quick healing and serious complications.

🚨 Diabetic Foot Health - Don’t Ignore the Warning Signs 🚨

People living with diabetes are at a much higher risk of developing serious foot problems. Poor circulation, nerve damage (neuropathy), and slower healing can quickly turn even the smallest cut or blister into a dangerous wound.

👣 Common issues include:

Persistent wounds or ulcers that do not heal

Redness, swelling, or warmth in the foot

Numbness, tingling, or burning sensations

Skin changes, infections, or ingrown toenails

Left untreated, diabetic foot wounds can lead to severe infections, hospitalization, and in extreme cases, amputation.

✅ Prevention is key:

Inspect your feet daily for cuts, blisters, or changes in skin

Wash and dry feet thoroughly, especially between the toes

Wear comfortable, protective shoes and socks

Never walk barefoot

Seek medical attention immediately if a wound does not improve within 24 - 48 hours

At Numi Foot Med, we specialize in diabetic foot care and wound management. Early detection and professional treatment can save your feet – and your health.

👣 Spot the Difference: Left vs. Right Foot
Early Signs of Foot Stress & Skin Breakdown

This side-by-side photo highlights the subtle but important differences between the left and right foot in an overweight individual - often overlooked signs that the feet are under significant mechanical and circulatory stress.

🔍 What We See:

🦶 Left Foot

Less discoloration and nail involvement

Swelling is present but appears milder

Skin tone and hydration slightly better than the right foot

🦶 Right Foot

Noticeably thickened, yellowed toenails (possible fungal infection)

Increased swelling and darker skin tone (potential venous congestion or early lymphedema)

Skin showing signs of dryness and poor circulation

🩺 Our Treatment Approach at Numi Foot Med:

✅ Medical nail care to address thickened, discolored nails
✅ Moisturizing therapy for dry, compromised skin
✅ Edema management through elevation and compression (if appropriate)
✅ Circulatory support to improve blood flow
✅ Weight offloading strategies (custom insoles, footwear guidance)
✅ Patient education for long-term foot health and weight-related risk factors

💡 Even slight asymmetry between feet can be a red flag - early podiatric care prevents complications before they start.

🦶 Severe Onychogryphosis, Skin Dehydration, and Structural Changes

This photo illustrates an advanced stage of foot neglect in an elderly male, presenting with multiple common geriatric podiatric conditions:

🔹 Onychogryphosis (ram's horn nails):
Thickened, discolored, and curved toenails, most notably on the hallux (big toe) and second digit - likely due to chronic pressure, poor circulation, reduced self-care ability, and possible fungal infection.

🔹 Digital deformities and joint swelling:
The toes show structural abnormalities, such as hammertoes or claw toes, along with visible joint thickening - often associated with arthritis or long-term biomechanical stress.

🔹 Severely dry and flaky skin:
Signs of xerosis (dry skin), particularly on dorsal aspects of toes, which increases the risk of skin cracking, infection, and ulceration.
Regular foot care not only improves appearance but also prevents recurrence of fungal infections and other complications.

🙌 Your feet deserve the same attention as the rest of your body - don’t ignore the signs!

Necrotic Callused Ulcer on the Toe

This “BEFORE” photo illustrates the critical importance of timely foot care in elderly individuals. A previously callused area has progressed to include necrosis (dead tissue), discoloration, and potential infection - all of which can compromise mobility and health.

🩺 In our geriatric podiatry treatment plan, we address:

• 🔍 Accurate wound assessment & classification
• ✂️ Careful debridement of necrotic tissue
• 💊 Infection control and wound care therapy
• 👟 Custom offloading and footwear solutions
• 📅 Ongoing monitoring for recurrence prevention

Regular foot care not only improves appearance but also prevents recurrence of fungal infections and other complications.

🙌 Your feet deserve the same attention as the rest of your body - don’t ignore the signs!

• Discolored, brittle toenails (sign of onychomycosis)
