π¦Ά Podiatry Week 2025 (Oct 13β19) is here β and weβre celebrating the incredible work Podiatrists do to keep Australians on their feet, pain-free and active at every age π£πͺ
Our Podiatrist Ebony is here to talk about ankle health across all ages - you can read her full blog on our website ! π²
Whether it's a toddler learning to walk, a teen in sports, an adult dealing with daily wear & tear, or an older person managing chronic conditions β foot & ankle health matters more than you think!
π What do Podiatrists do?
They diagnose, treat & prevent issues like:
β’ Ingrown or fungal toenails
β’ Warts, corns & calluses
β’ Flat feet, heel pain, ankle instability
β’ Diabetes-related complications
β’ Gait issues like toe-walking or intoeing
β’ Foot pain caused by bunions, neuromas, and more!
πΆ Kids benefit from early checks to catch problems like flat feet, warts, or abnormal walking patterns before they cause long-term issues.
π©βπ¦° Adults often face pain from lifestyle wear & tear, injuries, or chronic conditions.
π΅ Seniors need ongoing support for mobility, circulation, and diabetes care.
π§ Itβs not just about feet β itβs about whole-body wellbeing. Podiatrists work closely with GPs & specialists to create personalised care plans that improve mobility, prevent complications, and support quality of life.
π¬ This week, we are raising awareness of how foot health supports your entire body. If it hurts, looks odd, or just doesnβt feel right β itβs worth checking.
