Tried everything for that stubborn verruca? 🧪
"I’ve tried the gels, the plasters, and even duct tape... but it’s still there!" 😫
Sound familiar? Verrucas are caused by a virus that is an expert at hiding from your immune system. If you’ve been treating it for months with no luck, it might not even be a verruca—it could be a corn!
In our latest blog, we explain:
🔍 The "Pinch Test" – How to tell a verruca from a corn.
💧 Verrutop – The painless, professional treatment that "mummifies" the virus.

Is an ingrown toenail making every step a struggle? If your toe is red, swollen, or throbbing, it's your body's way of saying: "Stop the bathroom surgery!"

In our latest blog, we cover:
🚩 The signs that your toe is officially infected.
✂️ Why the "V-cut" myth doesn't work.
🛠️ How our 60-minute permanent solution works (and why it's totally painless!).

More Than Just a "Nip" with the ClippersAn ingrown toenail (medically known as Onychocryptosis) occurs when the side of the nail cuts into the surrounding skin. It starts as a minor irritation, but it can quickly escalate into a throbbing, red, and infected mess that makes even wearing a sock feel l...

Hiding your feet in socks this month? 🧦

A yellow, thickened, or crumbly toenail isn't just an "eyesore"—it's a persistent fungal infection that rarely goes away on its own.

If you’ve tried every paint and lacquer from the pharmacy with no luck, there’s a reason why. Most treatments simply can't get through the nail to where the fungus lives.

In our latest blog, we reveal:

🚫 Why OTC treatments often fail.
🔬 The professional "pe*******on" methods we use in clinic.
👣 How to stop the fungus from spreading to your family.

I explain practical, evidence-based ways to relieve plantar fasciitis and get you back on your feet. Start with rest, regular calf and plantar-fascia stretches, ice therapy, and supportive footwear. Try night splints, orthotic inserts, or targeted physical therapy if pain persists.

If conservative care isn’t enough, medical options include corticosteroid injections, shock wave or laser therapy, and PRP — always discussed and tailored with a clinician. Simple lifestyle changes (healthy weight, low-impact exercise, shock-absorbing shoes) help prevent recurrence.

At Total Health Care, we combine podiatry with physiotherapy and holistic therapies to support recovery and long-term foot health. If heel pain limits your day, book an assessment so we can build a treatment plan that fits your needs.
