Podiatrist near Macleod West
As one of Melbourne’s leading Podiatry clinics, we are conveniently located in the Melbourne CBD and Reservoir to help treat any feet concerns you may be having.
Podiatry is a sector of the musculoskeletal specialism dedicated to the analysis and treatment of disorders of the foot, ankle and leg.
The most common foot problems associated with podiatry are:
- Skin problems
- Calluses and corns
- Nail disorders, like ingrown toenails
- Foot injuries
- Foot infections
- Overuse injuries of the foot and ankle
- Stress fractures of bones (these are caused by too much activity)
- Arch pain (plantar fasciitis)
- Inflammation of the tendon at the back of the ankle (Achilles tendonopathy)
- Pain at the base of the big toe (sesamoiditis)
Podiatrists sometimes prescribe orthoses, which are custom-made shoe inserts. These help to align the structure of the foot in the most stable and efficient position for walking and reduce pain.
At Northern Spinal & Sports Injury Clinic we use the most effective treatment methods available to us in order to relieve pain and offer long-lasting solutions for every one of our clients. All our Podiatrists are registered with the Podiatry Board of Australia, and affiliated with the Australian Podiatry Association.
