Foot assessments & general routine treatment
A full medical history is taken of each new patient including previous health problems, prescribed medication, operations , fractures , allergies etc. All existing chiropody problems are noted and recorded and a treatment plan suggested.
This assessment may result in a more in depth assessment being required and the patient being referred to a specialist eg Rheumatologist or Orthopaedic specialist. More often however the patient will then be provided with a routine treatment. Their nails will be cut,their corns and callouss removed and appropriate padding / dressings applied. Advice as what better footwear could be considered or what creams could be applied may be offered. Further investigations /treatment however might be recommended .
