SERVICES
During the initial Podiatry appointment a full medical history and assessment must be undertaken - this probably will take slightly longer than a follow-up routine appointment. Items covered by appointments are nail cutting, callus removal, corn removal, ingrowing toenail management or resolution, verrucas treatments and infected nail treatment. Diabetic appointments with skincare and nail advice given.
Podiatry
For those with general foot problems, and our most common service, book in for a routine podiatry appointment to keep your feet happy.
CHIROPODY
Elaine can also treat and alleviate day-to-day foot problems such as fungal or ingrown toenails.
Nail Surgery
Elaine can perform nail surgery here at the clinic. This is undertaken using local anaesthetic and can include removal of part or all of the toe nail.
DIABETIC ASSESSMENTS
Diabetic assessments are undertaken by all of our Podiatrists here at Bexley Podiatry Clinic.
VERRUCA TREATMENT
Verrucas or plantar warts are common and start as a small skin lesion on the sole/heel or toes of the foot. The human papilloma virus (HPV) is harmless but infectious and insightly and painful. Chemical or cryosurgery can be discussed within the Podiatry appointment.
Ingrown Toenail Treatment
Ingrowing toenails are a common condition when the sides or corners of the nail grow into the skin. Swelling, infection and pain can result. If required permanent removal of the problem area of the nail can be booked. This is classed as minor surgery under local anesthesia using a chemical to stop regrowth.
Fungal Nail Test & Treatment
Nail fungus (Onychomycosis) is a common yet progressive condition which damages the nail and needs effective treatment to stop the spread to other nails. Not all treatments for fungal nail infection are the same, so the Podiatrist will be able to discuss ongoing care for either home treatment or GP led treatment.
NEW: 5 Minute Fungal Nail Test
Is it fungal or not? Using a simple test you can get an immediate diagnosis allowing treatment to start as quickly as possible.
NEW: Verrutop Verucca Treatment
Verrutop is a new type of wart treatment. Unlike Cryotherapy or other chemical treatments, Verrutop does not act by freezing or burning the tissue. Instead it denatures the viral protein and desiccates the wart tissue, which then falls off the skin, leaving intact skin underneath.
Treatment is normally quick and painless.
