Preventive check-up

 

Foot Examinations

 

Preventive foot exams are more important today than ever before. Structural changes can lead to foot pain and fatigue.  Diabetes can lead to foot changes affecting the circulation and sensation.  The low back can also affect feeling in your feet and contribute to pain or abnormal gait. The foot can cause low back pain and the low back can cause referred pain to the extremities.  There are many disorders that have consequences to your feet.  Side effects from many medications can cause swelling, pain, loss of sensation and difficulty in walking.  A check-up is a piece of mind and perhaps an answer to a nagging complaint.
