Feet - who can fix them?

[buckeejit]

I feel like my feet need attention- parts of them are always sore & there's a bony bit that looks like it's in the wrong place!

Is a podiatrist the person to try or do they just do toenails?

Just bumping for you, as I was thinking of starting a thread asking the same question.

I'm not sure what a podiatrist does and what a chiropodist does ?

Oh following along. I have bunions they're getting worse and worse and I really should do something about it...

Can I join?
I've started running & really need to do something about my bunion

Podiatrists! Find a local one on Google or get a recommendation, they are excellent and deal with all sorts of foot health issues. will also usually deal with hard skin and generally buff up your feet and toes whole you're there

Podiatrists see the lower limb, hip to toe. University taught and HCPC registered. They are who you want to show your foot to, but If it's something that requires further intervention they'll point you to a specialist doctor or nurse. I'd see a podiatrist first though for a foot that's been sore a while.

Thanks! I think I've got some extra bone sprouting on top of my right foot. If nothing else, they'll be able to check the hard bits & advise on bad big toenail. Will try to book an appointment for Friday & report back!
