FUNGAL INFECTIONS ARE TREATABLE

Discolored, thickened, or crumbly toenails can be frustrating and embarrassing. But you do not have to live with them.

Fungal infections respond well to early treatment. The sooner you address the problem, the faster you can see improvement.

With decades of podiatric experience, I have helped countless patients clear fungal infections and restore healthy nails.

If you are struggling with fungal toenails, call (301) 288-1346 to schedule in Lanham.

Senior feet need special attention—proper care keeps you active, independent, and confident in your mobility.

Why seniors need specialized foot care:
- Skin becomes thinner and more fragile
- Circulation decreases with age
- Arthritis and joint stiffness develop
- Balance and proprioception decline
- Fall risk increases significantly
- Healing takes longer

Common senior foot problems:
- Arthritis and joint pain
- Reduced sensation (neuropathy)
- Circulation issues
- Dry skin and cracking
- Fungal infections
- Balance and gait changes

Our approach:
- Comprehensive foot and ankle assessment
- Circulation and sensation testing
- Proper footwear recommendations for stability
- Custom orthotics for comfort and balance
- Regular monitoring and preventive care
- Fall prevention strategies
- Education on daily foot care

What matters most:
Staying active and independent depends on healthy, pain-free feet. Regular professional care prevents complications and maintains mobility.

Keep your independence. Call (301) 288-1346 to schedule your senior foot care evaluation today.

Blisters are preventable—and knowing what causes them helps you avoid painful friction and infection.

What causes blisters:
- Friction from ill-fitting shoes
- Moisture and heat creating the perfect blister environment
- Repetitive rubbing during activity
- New shoes without proper break-in
- Improper sock choice (cotton absorbs moisture)
- Certain foot conditions increasing friction risk

Why prevention matters:
Blisters cause pain, limit activity, and can become infected if not handled properly. Prevention is always easier than treatment.

Our approach:
- Assess your footwear and fit
- Recommend proper sock materials (moisture-wicking)
- Suggest gradual shoe break-in strategies
- Identify friction-prone areas on your feet
- Provide blister prevention techniques
- Treat active blisters safely if they develop

What helps:
Proper footwear fit, moisture-wicking socks, gradual activity increase, and protective padding in friction zones.

Stop blisters from ruining your activity. Call (301) 288-1346 to schedule your foot care consultation today.

Ingrown toenails are painful and common—but early intervention prevents surgery and infection.

What causes ingrown toenails:
- Improper nail trimming (cutting too short)
- Tight shoes pressing the nail into the skin
- Genetic predisposition to curved nails
- Trauma or injury to the nail
- Poor foot hygiene
- Fungal infections weakening the nail

Why early treatment matters:
Untreated ingrown toenails become infected, painful, and may require surgical removal. Early care prevents complications.

Our approach:
- Assess the severity of the ingrown nail
- Remove the ingrown portion safely (same-day relief)
- Recommend proper nail trimming techniques
- Suggest footwear adjustments
- Provide infection prevention strategies
- Monitor healing and prevent recurrence
- Educate on proper foot care

What helps:
Proper nail trimming (not too short), wide-toe-box shoes, and good foot hygiene. Prevention is easier than treatment.

Stop ingrown toenail pain. Call (301) 288-1346 to schedule your same-day relief today.
