Athlete’s Foot (Tinea Pedis)

Athlete’s Foot is a skin infection due to fungus on the feet. It is a common condition among athletes and children, but it can affect anyone.

Blisters

Those who walk or run long distances are no strangers to foot blisters. Blisters are puffy, fluid-filled pockets that occur after the skin gets damaged to protect the skin and promote healing of the injured area.

Callus

Calluses are hard, thickened areas of skin that are generally not painful but can be uncomfortable or limit your ability to wear certain shoes.

Corns

Corns result from repeated focal pressure on the foot, such as rubbing of the skin against a shoe, wearing no socks with shoes, or foot deformities.

Cracked Heels

Early stages of fissures on the feet, cracked heels describe the cracking over the hard, dry, callused skin, usually at the heels.

Foot Odour

Many adults and children suffer from odorous feet. Excessive sweating causing bacterial growth is often the main cause for foot odour, but it can also occur from fungal infections.

Fungal Nail Infection

If you’ve been noticing changes in the colour, thickness, flakiness or odour in your nails, there’s a good chance you may have picked up a fungal nail infection.

Ingrown Toenails

Suffering from ingrown toenails is painful and frustrating. An ingrown toenail is where the nail edge has penetrated and grown down into the surrounding skin.

Thick Toenails

Toenails can change over time and thicken, which puts more pressure on the surrounding skin as well as your shoes.

Warts (Verrucae)

Plantar warts can appear anywhere on the foot and appear thickened, raised, and often circular.
