🦶 When Fungal Nails Become Painful

Many people think fungal nail infections are only a cosmetic problem, but as the nail thickens over time it can sometimes begin to cause pressure and discomfort in footwear.

Thickened fungal nails may lead to:

• pressure in shoes
• discomfort when walking
• difficulty cutting the nail
• build-up of thickened nail material
• the nail catching on socks or footwear
Also the potential for nails to detach completely exposing the nail bed.

This happens because the nail plate can become thickened and distorted as the infection progresses.

Professional podiatry care can help by:

• carefully reducing the thickness of the nail
• removing damaged nail material
• improving comfort in footwear
• helping topical treatments pe*****te the nail more effectively

Many patients notice an immediate improvement in comfort once the nail has been professionally reduced.

Fungal nail infections are common and treatable, but early assessment often prevents the nail becoming increasingly thick or uncomfortable.

🦶 Thick Yellow Toenails?
The Reason Treatment Often Fails Might Surprise You…
🦶 Did you know…
Around 10% of the general population have fungal nail infections, and this rises to up to 20–30% in people over 60.

The infection is called Onychomycosis.These infections are usually caused by a group of fungi known as Dermatophytes(see pictures), which live on keratin — the protein found in nails, skin and hair.
Up to 90% of fungal nail infections are caused by dermatophytes, most commonly Trichophyton rubrum.

That means millions of people in the UK are living with thick, discoloured nails.

Many don’t realise:
it’s a treatable infection
it can spread to other nails
it often starts with athlete’s foot

Another Interesting Fact
About 50% of abnormal toenails are actually fungal infections, but the other half may be due to:
• trauma
• psoriasis
• ageing nail changes
This is why proper diagnosis matters before starting treatment.
Many people try treatments that don’t work because the infection sits under the nail plate, where medication struggles to reach.

At Treat your feet Podiatry we can offer treatments designed to improve the effectiveness of antifungal therapy.
This may include:
✔ professional nail reduction
✔ removal of fungal debris
✔ high-strength urea treatments to soften thick nails
✔ topical antifungal medications where appropriate
Urea works by breaking down keratin in the nail, which helps soften thickened nails.
This allows antifungal treatments such as **Amorolfine 5% medicated lacquer to reach the infection more effectively.
Combining treatments improves outcomes compared with medication alone.

Fungal nail infections can take time to treat because toenails grow slowly.
Treatment focuses on allowing healthy nail to grow from the base of the nail.
Typical progress:
• improvement may be seen within 3–6 months
• full nail regrowth may take 9–12 months

Regular podiatry care helps:
• reduce fungal load
• thin thickened nails
• monitor progress
• support successful treatment options

Did you know the Black Country has some of the highest diabetes rates in England?

In areas such as Sandwell and Wolverhampton, around 10–11% of adults are living with diabetes, which is higher than the national average.
Diabetes significantly increases the risk of circulation problems in the feet and legs.

Reduced circulation can lead to:
• slow healing wounds
• foot pain when walking
• colour changes in the feet
• serious complications if left untreated

This is why I’ve launched the Treat Your Feet Community Circulation Initiative, aimed at raising awareness of the early warning signs of poor circulation and encouraging people to have their feet checked.

To help raise awareness, I’ve created a Community Circulation Guide to help people recognise the early warning signs of poor circulation and understand when to seek professional advice.

This forms part of the Treat Your Feet Community Circulation Initiative, aimed at improving awareness of vascular health in the lower limb.

If you are concerned about circulation in your feet, you can book a dedicated circulation check using the QR code below or contact the clinic directly.

A new community foot health initiative is coming…

Over the past few months I’ve been working on something that I feel very passionate about.

Across the UK, many serious circulation problems in the legs and feet go unnoticed until it’s too late. Early warning signs are often missed, and many people don’t realise they may be at risk.

Around 80% of diabetes-related amputations are considered preventable with early detection and proper foot care. �

That’s why I’m developing a community circulation screening initiative through Treat Your Feet Podiatry.

The aim is simple:

🦶 Help people understand the warning signs of poor circulation🦶 Provide circulation screening using Doppler assessment🦶 Identify those who may need further vascular assessment🦶 Help prevent serious complications such as ulcers and amputations

Education and early detection can make a huge difference.

I’ll soon be visiting community groups, health groups and local venues to provide short educational talks and circulation screening.

If you run a community group, wellbeing group or health club and would be interested in hosting a short talk or screening session, feel free to get in touch.

Small steps in awareness can make a big difference to limb health.

🚨 Circulation Screening & Limb Preservation Initiative – Treat Your Feet Podiatry 🚨

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and diabetes-related vascular compromise are frequently under-diagnosed in the community.
Many patients present late — not because they ignored symptoms, but because early warning signs were not recognised.

Early indicators of reduced arterial blood flow can include:
• Calf cramping when walking (claudication)
• Rest pain at night
• Cold, pale or mottled feet
• Shiny skin or hair loss on toes
• Slow healing wounds
• Reduced or absent pulses

These signs matter.

In the UK, thousands of lower limb amputations occur every year — many linked to vascular disease and diabetes.
Evidence shows early identification and structured referral significantly reduces limb loss risk.

Through the Treat Your Feet Circulation & Limb Preservation Initiative, I will be:
🩺 Delivering structured vascular screening assessments
📊 Doppler waveform analysis
📘 Providing patient education handbooks
🎤 Delivering community awareness talks
📲 Developing clear red-flag escalation pathways

As an Advanced Podiatrist with direct referral access into vascular services, my role is to:
• Identify risk early
• Escalate appropriately
• Reduce delays
• Improve limb outcomes

Prevention begins with recognition.

"In the UK, thousands of major and minor lower limb amputations occur annually, many associated with vascular disease and diabetes. Early detection and structured referral pathways are proven to significantly reduce risk."

If your group, organisation or workplace would like to host a circulation awareness session or screening event, please message the page.

👣 Verruca: Myth vs Fact
There’s a lot of misinformation about verrucae… let’s clear it up.
❌ MYTH 1: “Verrucae have roots.”
✔ FACT:
They don’t have roots.
The black dots you see are tiny blood vessels — not roots growing into your foot.
❌ MYTH 2: “If I cut it out, it will go.”
✔ FACT:
Cutting or picking often spreads the virus further.
Verrucae are caused by HPV in the skin — trauma can actually increase spread.
❌ MYTH 3: “They’ll always go away on their own.”
✔ FACT:
Some do. Many don’t.
Especially mosaic or long-standing lesions in adults.
Immune response matters — and sometimes it needs help.
❌ MYTH 4: “Needling just burns it off.”
✔ FACT:
Verruca needling is not about burning the surface.
It’s designed to stimulate a targeted immune response under local anaesthetic.
We encourage your body to recognise and clear the virus properly.
❌ MYTH 5: “All verruca treatments are the same.”
✔ FACT:
Different types of verrucae respond differently.
Assessment is key — circulation, medical history, immune status, previous treatments.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach.

🔬 This diagram shows how a verruca sits within the upper layers of the skin.
The small black dots are tiny blood vessels — not “roots.”
Treatments like needling aim to stimulate an immune response beneath the surface, rather than just removing surface tissue.

If you’ve been battling a stubborn verruca for months (or years)…
It might be time for a proper assessment.

👣 Verruca Needling – When Simple Treatments Aren’t Enough
Still battling a stubborn verruca?

If you’ve tried acids, freezing, over-the-counter remedies… and it just isnt budging— there is another option.
At Treat Your Feet Podiatry, I offer verruca needling, a minor procedure designed to stimulate your body’s own immune response to clear the virus.

🔬 How does it work?
Under local anaesthetic, the verruca is carefully needled to trigger an immune reaction. Instead of just treating the surface, we stimulate your body to recognise and fight the virus properly.
📊 Success rates are high — particularly for: • Long-standing verrucae
• Mosaic verrucae
• Painful lesions affecting walking or sport
• Verrucae resistant to other treatments
🛌 The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic (often an ankle block for comfort), meaning the area is fully numb before treatment begins.
👣 Most patients return to normal activity within a few days (reduced sport initially advised).

*The treatment is 1 session only, no multiple return apoointments
1 cost
1 review in 3 months*

Is it right for you?
Needling isn’t first-line for every verruca — assessment is key. I’ll examine:
• Circulation
• Medical history
• Immune status
• Previous treatments
• Red flags
Because the right treatment matters.

If you’re tired of “managing” your verruca and want to deal with it properly…

Knee Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Injections

Advanced joint care

Living with knee pain doesn’t have to mean long waits or ongoing discomfort.
At The Foot Clinic, Rowley Regis, we offer private Hyaluronic Acid (HA) knee injections to help reduce pain, improve movement, and support joint health—without the stress of NHS delays.



What is a Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Knee Injection?

Hyaluronic Acid is a naturally occurring substance found in healthy joint fluid. It acts as a lubricant and shock absorber, allowing the knee to move smoothly and comfortably.

Over time—particularly with osteoarthritis, joint degeneration, or repeated strain—levels of natural HA reduce. This can lead to:
• Pain and stiffness
• Reduced mobility
• Inflammation
• Grinding or aching sensations in the knee

HA injections work by replacing and supplementing this lost joint fluid, helping to restore smoother, more comfortable movement.



Key Benefits of HA Knee Injections

✔ Helps reduce knee pain and stiffness
✔ Improves joint lubrication and cushioning
✔ Supports smoother, more comfortable movement

These injections are subject to a Full Medical history being completed at a consultation appointment with our Podiatrist.

👣 Lower Limb Health & Amputation Prevention Initiative

At Treat Your Feet Podiatry, I believe prevention is just as important as treatment.
Many serious lower limb complications — including avoidable amputations — begin with unrecognised circulation problems.

As part of my commitment to community limb preservation, every New Patient Assessment now includes a:
🩺 Complimentary Lower Limb Circulation Check
This structured vascular screening helps identify:
• Early signs of reduced blood flow
• Risk factors for Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)
• Circulatory changes that may not yet be painful
• When GP or vascular referral may be required
Circulatory disease can develop quietly.
Early detection allows early action.

📘 Lower Limb Health Handbook Included
Each new patient receives a clear, patient-friendly handbook covering:
• What was assessed during your visit
• What your circulation results mean
• Red flag symptoms to watch for
• When to seek urgent medical advice
• General lifestyle guidance to support circulation
Including advice on:
✔️ Smoking & vascular health
✔️ Movement & walking
✔️ Foot protection
✔️ Skin monitoring
✔️ When not to ignore pain
Because education empowers prevention.

👣 Full Clinical Services Also Available
Alongside vascular screening, I provide:
✔️ Routine podiatry
✔️ Nail surgery
✔️ Verruca needling
✔️ Heel pain & plantar fasciitis treatment
✔️ Biomechanical assessment
✔️ Steroid injections
✔️ Hyaluronic acid joint injections (including knee)
✔️ High-risk & complex foot management
All delivered with structured assessment and evidence-based care.

“Joint Pain? There’s Another Option.”

Joint pain isn’t something you just have to live with.
If you’re struggling with:
🔹 Big toe joint stiffness (arthritis)
🔹 Pain when walking or bending the toe
🔹 Midfoot arthritis discomfort
🔹 Ongoing inflammation not settling
🦵 Knee osteoarthritis
You may have heard of steroid injections…
But there’s another option.
💧 Hyaluronic Acid Injections
This treatment works by:
✔️ Improving joint lubrication
✔️ Supporting shock absorption
✔️ Reducing friction in arthritic joints
✔️ Potentially delaying more invasive procedures

It’s particularly helpful in:
• Hallux rigidus
• Early to moderate osteoarthritis
• Patients who want to avoid repeated steroid use
As an Advanced Podiatrist, I assess:
✔️ Biomechanics
✔️ Joint integrity
✔️ Whether injection therapy is appropriate

Unlike steroid injections, hyaluronic acid focuses on restoring joint environment rather than just reducing inflammation.
The knee is often one of the most responsive joints to this treatment when appropriate.
Not everyone is suitable — but the right patient can experience significant relief.
If you're unsure whether this could help you, book a Triage Assessment and we’ll discuss options.
