What Does an Advanced Foot Care Nurse Do?

A foot care nurse provides clinical, preventative foot care—especially for clients who are considered high-risk.

During an appointment, they will:
• Perform a full foot assessment (skin, nails, circulation, sensation)
• Trim and manage thick, fungal, or ingrown toenails
• Reduce calluses and corns safely (to prevent pressure and breakdown)
• Check for signs of ulcers, infections, or pressure areas
• Assess circulation and may perform tests like ABI (Ankle-Brachial Index) or measure for compression stockings
• Provide education on daily foot care, footwear, and prevention

They also:
• Use sterile/single-use instruments for safety
• Create a care plan based on your individual needs
• Monitor changes over time to catch issues early, and can refer patients to a podiatrist if they see the need for further specialized treatment

Care can often be provided in-home, making it accessible and comfortable—especially in Alberta winters.

At Sole Foot Care & Wellness, our goal is prevention, early detection, and keeping you safely on your feet.

What Causes Bunions?

A bunion is a bony bump that forms at the base of the big toe, causing it to shift inward toward the other toes.

Common causes include:
• Foot structure (genetics) – some people are more prone due to how their feet are shaped
• Tight or narrow footwear – especially shoes that squeeze the toes
• Arthritis – can affect joint alignment
• Foot mechanics – like flat feet or abnormal walking patterns

Over time:
Pressure on the joint causes it to become enlarged, leading to pain, redness, and difficulty finding comfortable shoes.

Why it matters:
Bunions can worsen if not managed and may lead to calluses, corns, and joint discomfort.

At Sole Foot Care & Wellness, we can help manage bunions by giving advice on how to reduce pressure areas and assist in keeping your feet comfortable.

Urea: A Key Ingredient in Foot Care

Urea is an important ingredient in foot care products—especially for dry, thick, or callused skin.

What does urea do?
• Deeply hydrates dry skin
• Softens thickened areas like calluses and heels
• Gently exfoliates dead skin buildup

Different strengths serve different needs:
• Low (10%-20%) → daily hydration
• Medium → dry, rough skin
• Higher (40% +) → thick calluses and cracked heels

Why it matters:
Keeping skin soft and moisturized helps prevent cracks, pressure points, and complications—especially for high-risk feet.

Regular use can make a big difference in overall foot comfort and health and helps maintain your feet between foot care appointments!
