Foot Skin Conditions
We specialise in diagnosing and treating a wide range of foot skin conditions to keep your feet healthy and comfortable. From common issues like athlete’s foot, corns and calluses to more complex conditions such as plantar warts, fungal infections and eczema – our team offers expert care tailored to your needs.
Common Foot Skin Conditions
1. Athlete’s Foot (Tinea Pedis):
Athlete’s Foot is a fungal infection affecting the skin between the toes, often causing itching, redness, and a burning sensation. Our podiatrists can provide targeted antifungal treatments to alleviate symptoms and prevent recurrence.
2. Eczema and Dermatitis:
Skin conditions like eczema and dermatitis can manifest on the feet, causing redness, itching, and inflammation. City Chiropody & Podiatry offers personalised care plans, including topical treatments and lifestyle adjustments to manage and control these chronic conditions.
3. Psoriasis:
Psoriasis can affect the skin on the feet, leading to scaly patches and discomfort. Our podiatrists collaborate with dermatologists to develop comprehensive treatment strategies, combining topical therapies and systemic approaches for effective relief.
4. Corns, Calluses, and Hard Skin:
Thickened areas of skin, such as corns, calluses, and hard skin, can cause discomfort and affect foot aesthetics. Our podiatrists specialise in debridement techniques, orthotic interventions, and footwear advice to address these conditions and prevent recurrence.
5. Cracked Heels:
Cracked heels can result from dry skin or underlying conditions. City Chiropody & Podiatry offers moisturising regimens, exfoliation techniques, and professional care to heal and prevent further complications associated with cracked heels.
Professional Solutions:
Our experienced podiatrists provide a range of targeted solutions for foot skin conditions:
- Diagnostic Assessments: Precise identification of the skin condition enables tailored treatment plans.
- Orthotic Interventions: Custom orthotic insoles to alleviate pressure points and promote healthy skin.
- Debridement and Exfoliation: Removal of thickened skin layers for immediate relief and improved skin health.
- Education and Preventive Strategies: Comprehensive guidance on foot hygiene, footwear choices, and lifestyle adjustments to prevent recurrence.
Prevention:
Maintaining healthy foot skin involves adopting proactive measures:
- Keep feet clean, dry, and moisturised.
- Choose breathable, well-fitting footwear.

EXCELLENT Based on 70 reviews Roy2024-03-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I don't usually write reviews but when I developed a very large verruca I researched thoroughly and decided on Swift Microwave treatment with Andrew. Having tried other treatments in the past with varying degrees of success I was a little sceptical. Although the treatment was briefly painful, the result was excellent. Only 2 treatments required and it is totally gone. Andrew was very knowledgeable, honest and friendly, cannot recommend highly enough. 3L Developments2024-01-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really lovely practitioner and owner. While my individual case could not be resolved due to scheduling conflicts, Andrew was very responsive and proactive in offering options to help. I appreciate the service and will be back to see Andrew in the future. Lorena Terrero De La Cruz2023-11-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing Neil Williamson2023-11-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Went to Sophie Brewer who was excellent - highly recommend her. Jay Tee2023-10-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So thankful for William helping me in my hour of need. I’d had a toe issue for a while and having put off having it seen to my wife intervened and booked an appointment for me. Absolutely great service and thoroughly recommended. All issues were explained in detail and the treatment executed swiftly and painlessly. Please do not think twice about using this surgery and although I’m sure all the practitioners are amazing, I would wholeheartedly recommend William.
