When Should You See a Podiatrist?

When Should You See a Podiatrist?

Your feet are tasked with carrying and balancing your entire body as you get on with your day, which, depending on your schedule, can involve a lot of walking, some running, and plenty of stairs. You depend on them too much not to seek the professional care of your McKinney and Prosper, TX, podiatrist. Learn more by reaching out to Advanced Foot and Ankle Center with Dr. Eric Silvers, Dr. Christopher Witt, and Dr. Melissa Sgro.

If You Are Experiencing Pain.

Discomfort is what sends most people to their podiatrist's office, and with good reason. Pain is often a symptom that there is something already wrong or beginning to become a serious concern. Pain is typically caused by inflammation which in turn is caused by stress or injury on that part of the foot. This could be caused by improper footwear, factors like weight and the type of job you have, and of course, other underlying foot conditions.

If You Have a Foot Condition

There are a number of chronic foot conditions that can lead to complications and that can be exacerbated by outside factors. Having a family history of these conditions can make it more likely that you will also develop them. A common example is that of low arches which can put undue pressure on your plantar fascia and lead to heel pain caused by plantar fasciitis.

If You Suffer From Diabetes

Foot conditions aren't the only type of health condition that can affect the health of your feet. Diabetes, for example, affect the extremities in two ways, they make injuries and other problems hard to detect and also much more difficult to heal. This can cause them to become infected and cause serious complications if not spotted and treated in time. So anyone suffering from diabetes is often strongly encouraged to visit their podiatrist on a regular basis.
