Cold winter weather can make neuropathy symptoms feel worse—more numbness, tingling, or burning in your feet. ❄️
Why? Cold temperatures reduce circulation and can heighten nerve sensitivity.

Winter neuropathy tips:
• Keep feet warm with insulated socks
• Avoid walking barefoot on cold floors
• Stay active to promote blood flow
• Check your feet daily for cuts or sores

If neuropathy is making winter uncomfortable, our podiatry team is here to help! Call us to schedule an appointment.

Heat your home safely by using these Do's and Don'ts of space heater safety.
DO:
- Keep anything that can burn 3 feet away from fireplace, wood stove, or space heater.
- Plug in your space heater directly into the wall outlet.
- Buy a unit with an automatic shut-off in case it tips over, or you forget to shut it off.
DON'T:
- Use an extension cord to plug in your space heater. It can overheat and can be a tripping hazard.
- Place your space heater near curtains, clothing, furniture, or bedding.
- Leave your space heater unattended. Always unplug before you leave it.

🚨 Winter Foot Safety Reminder 🚨
Icy conditions increase the risk of slips, falls, and foot injuries. Choose shoes with good traction, avoid worn-out soles, take your time on slick surfaces, and...

🐧WALK LIKE A PENGUIN🐧
To walk like a penguin on ice, keep your center of gravity over your feet by bending your knees slightly, pointing your feet out a little, taking short, shuffling steps, and extending your arms out for balance. Move slowly, walk flat-footed (not heel-toe), and focus on your footing to prevent slips and falls.

Foot pain after a fall? Don’t ignore it—early treatment matters.
