Problems We Solve

Getting to the root of the problem.

This list includes foot and leg problems that we see on a daily basis – but these are really just the tip of the iceberg! As all of our practitioners are registered and experienced podiatrists, we are qualified to treat a wide range of pains, injuries and diseases that affect the feet, ankles, knees, legs and hips.

Heel Pain

Whether it’s caused by plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, damage to your fat pad or something else, heel pain can be a crippling condition that can quickly worsen if it’s not treated effectively.

Morton’s Neuroma

If you feel like you’re walking on a pebble at the ball of your foot then you may have Morton’s neuroma. Most commonly occurring between the third and fourth toes, a neuroma describes painful inflammation of the tissue surrounding a nerve.

Bunions

If you’ve noticed a bony bump at the inside border of your foot and your big toe is starting to angle in towards the lesser toes then you may have a bunion. Without proper care, bunions typically continue to worsen over time, ultimately making it very difficult to fit footwear comfortably.

Corns & Calluses

Both corns and calluses are caused by hard skin building up in response to excess pressure or friction. Both can be extremely painful or painless depending on their location, and can easily be removed in one appointment.

Fungal Toenails

Without effective treatment, fungal nail infections can continue to re-infect the nails and spread within households. That’s why managing this infection must involve controlling the fungus in your shoes, socks and your home environment too.

Achilles Pain

If you have pain at the back of the heel that worsens when you run or exercise, and feels better when you relax or elevate your feet, you may have damaged your Achilles tendon.

Stress Fractures

Stress fractures start as small hairline cracks in a bone, with minimal pain. Over time and without targeted treatment, they can grow larger, causing severe pain and discomfort.

Shin Splints

There’s nothing worse than pain at the front or inside of your shins that stops you in your tracks when you’re out for a run. Shin splints are often associated with the movement of your feet and legs, so often require some changes to your gait to help prevent them from flaring up when you’re active.

Diabetes

Diabetes has serious consequences for the feet. It is currently the leading cause of lower-limb amputations in Australia aside from accidents/trauma, accounting for 4,400 amputations per year. We perform diabetic foot checks, help you understand your risks and how to manage them, and help you manage any problems that arise.

Ingrown Toenails

When a piece of nail pierces the surrounding skin and begins to grow inwards, this is known as an ingrown toenail. As many ingrown toenails are caused by the way we cut our nails and the shoes we wear, your treatment involves both removing the painful nail edge, as well as teaching you how to help prevent it from coming back.
