Wave goodbye to hammer toe!
Prevention is the best remedy, and we're sharing essential tips to help keep your toes happy and healthy! 🚫🔨🦶

1️⃣ Choose the Right Footwear: Avoid tight, narrow, or high-heeled shoes. Opt for comfortable ones with ample toe room, a wide toe box, and good arch support.

2️⃣ Do Toe Exercises: Regular toe exercises can keep your joints flexible and muscles balanced, reducing the risk of hammer toe.

3️⃣ Maintain Good Posture: Distribute your weight evenly when standing or walking. Always wear supportive shoes to maintain a healthy arch.

4️⃣ Address Foot Problems Early: Consult a podiatrist at the first sign of foot issues like bunions, corns, calluses, or plantar fasciitis.

5️⃣ Maintain a Healthy Weight: Extra weight can strain your feet. Regular exercise and a balanced diet help to manage weight and reduce stress on your feet.

Remember, prevention is better than a cure. If you're experiencing hammer toe or any foot issues, don't hesitate to reach out to MVS Podiatry Associates. Here's to foot health and a pain-free lifestyle! 💪🎉

Ingrown toenails, often overlooked due to their concealed nature, demand immediate medical attention and lifestyle changes. Many individuals, even upon recognizing the issue, tend to make several common mistakes that exacerbate the condition. Here are some typical errors:

Persisting with Tight Shoes:
People mistakenly believe that snug-fitting shoes offer the perfect fit. But ideal footwear should provide ample space for comfortable nail rest and free toe spread. Tight shoes, particularly those with narrow toe areas or steel caps, exert undue pressure on the toenails, encouraging them to grow into the skin. If you have an ingrown toenail, avoid tight shoes, and opt for wider ones to prevent future occurrences.

Incorrect Toenail Trimming:
Improper toenail cutting techniques can cause issues like ingrown toenails. Overly rounding the corners of your toenails can lead the nail to press into the surrounding skin. Tearing an already ingrown toenail can worsen the situation, leaving behind a sharp nail fragment that could develop into another ingrown toenail. Avoid trimming your toenails excessively short.

Neglecting the Issue:
Often, people ignore ingrown toenails, a common but significant mistake. Ingrown toenail removal surgeries are now commonplace and offer an effective solution. These conditions don't resolve on their own, hence the importance of attention and timely action when detecting an ingrown toenail.

In the presence of these issues, it's crucial to consult professionals. At MVS Podiatry Associates, a team of board certified/qualified podiatrists dedicated to foot health, offers comprehensive assessments. Seek our expert advice for optimal foot health management.

If you're considering taking your workouts outdoors, you might want to incorporate running into your exercise routine. While starting can be overwhelming, following these podiatrist-recommended tips will help you overcome the initial challenges of running outdoors and prevent common injuries.

Begin Slowly:
Whether you're a seasoned treadmill runner or a first-timer, the mistake many people make is doing too much too soon. Start with a brisk walk to get your heart used to the new routine, and gradually increase your pace as the weeks go by.

Plan Your Runs:
Before heading out, plan your route, so you can track your progress and avoid overexertion. Start with shorter routes and gradually increase them as you become more comfortable. Knowing where you're going makes it easier to invite a friend along.

Choose Your Surface:
The repetitive motion of running can be tough on your feet, especially on hard surfaces. Consider natural trails for a softer landing and beautiful scenery. But be mindful of uneven surfaces and slippery rocks.

Dress Appropriately:
The spring weather in Maryland is beautiful but can be chilly. Layer up for colder days. When running near traffic, wear bright colors to remain visible.

Warm-Up and Cool-Down:
Easing your body into exercise with an appropriate warm-up is an essential part of injury prevention. Take the time to stretch your legs and body to get your blood flowing. Give yourself time to cool down, and stay hydrated.

Make It Fun:
Making exercise fun can increase your chances of sticking with it. Bring a friend or two to make it easier and more enjoyable. You'll benefit from keeping each other accountable. And the outdoors is an excellent place to catch up with friends.

While local urgent care facilities can be helpful for minor ailments or injuries, they may not be the best option for every foot problem. When it comes to chronic foot or ankle pain, fractures, or other traumatic injuries, it is advisable to consult a podiatrist—your dedicated specialist for foot and ankle care. A podiatrist can provide an accurate diagnosis and develop an appropriate treatment plan to help you recover and experience relief more efficiently. So, for a faster path to healing and overall well-being, it's best to seek the expertise of a podiatrist.

A variety of conditions should be treated by a podiatrist. Whenever you encounter foot or ankle pain, injuries, or observe changes in the condition of your feet or ankles, seeking specialized care from a podiatrist is appropriate. However, the following specific conditions certainly necessitate contacting your podiatric physician and surgeon: Peripheral Neuropathy, Neuromas, Skin Changes, and Injury.
