Another fact is sweat itself doesn't smell, it’s the bacteria that love it. When sweat meets skin microbes, odor happens. Stay fresh by keeping bacteria in check. 👃👣

You can do this by bringing a spare pair of socks to change into midday, or using a foot deodorant such as the Gehwol Deodorant foot cream we stock in the clinic. 🧴🧦

When applying sunscreen, we often just cover the areas that are easy to reach and quick to burn.

The skin on our feet is just as susceptible to the harm of UV radiation as any other part of our bodies, and are often exposed while wearing sandals and jandals over summer for extended periods.

It's easy to forget to take a second to cover those less than obvious spots, so here's your reminder to make sure to lather up that sunscreen on the tops of your feet, and also the soles if you find yourself exposing them to the sun! 🩴🌞

Proper toenail care is one of the most effective ways to prevent painful ingrown toenails and keep your feet healthy! 👣

Here’s what our podiatrists recommend for safe at-home trimming:

-Trimming the nail, following the line where your nail connects to your skin is best, and usually this is a slight curve.
-Don’t cut nails too short. Leave a thin line of white nail visible, cutting too close can expose sensitive skin and invite infection.
-Smooth sharp edges. Use an emery board or file to gently smooth corners instead of rounding them.
-Trim when nails are dry. This helps prevent tearing or jagged edges (wet nails can bend and split).
-Keep tools clean. Always disinfect your clippers or scissors before and after use. We recommend using a isopropyl alcohol in either liquid or a wipe.

Lastly, wearing properly fitting shoes. Tight shoes or narrow toe boxes can press the nail into the skin, increasing your risk of ingrown nails.

⚠️ Watch for warning signs: pain, redness, swelling, or drainage near the nail edge can signal an infection. Don’t try to fix it yourself; professional treatment from a podiatrist or foot care therapist can prevent complications.

Healthy nails = happy feet! 💙

As the weather warms and the sun shines, we’ll be seeing lots of people heading off to do the Great Walks of NZ this summer. 🚶🏻‍♂️🚶🏽‍♀️

If this is you and you're prone to blisters, remember to do plenty of practice hikes, use appropriate footwear, wear good quality socks, and try out a product such as Hiker's wool to help prevent blisters and skin breaks. 👣

Summer is just around the corner 🌞 and we have some tips to help you prepare your feet for the sun, beaches and hikes 👣

1. Sun protection - Even though it's not quite summer yet, it's important to be mindful of sun protection year-round. Our feet are often forgotten when it comes to sun protection, yet the skin on our feet is highly susceptible to melanoma and other skin cancers. Use a high-SPF sunscreen before heading outdoors in your jandals, and be sure to reapply after dipping your toes in the water.

2. Good sandals or jandals - As the weather warms up, we tend to switch our footwear for something a little more breezy. Something contoured to provide arch support with secure straps will be comfortable and decrease the stress placed on your feet. We stock in the clinic!

3.Cuticle oil - cuticle oil will hydrate the cuticles keeping the skin and nails supple , toughen weak and vulnerable nail plates and increase circulation to keep your nails healthy and looking great.

4. Debridement - use a foot file or pumice to gently remove any build-up of dead skin around your feet. Be sure to do this when your feet are dry - not in the shower!

5. Moisturise - moisturise, moisturise moisturise! This will help keep your skin hydrated, healthy and less susceptible to cracking. Not all moisturisers are equal - different active ingredients will have different effects, so be sure to ask your podiatrist for advice on the best kind for your skin type and any problems you wish to address.
