"It's just my age." We hear it every week. 🦶

Feet do change as you get older, but pain isn't an inevitable part of that. Sore feet usually have a cause we can name: pressure from footwear, a nail digging in, hard skin over a bony prominence, a stiff joint, a dropped arch changing how you load the foot.

Naming the cause is what makes it treatable. Most people walk out more comfortable the same day.

If you have diabetes, your feet deserve a yearly appointment. 🦶

Raised blood sugar can gradually reduce the sensation in your feet and slow the circulation that heals them. That combination means a small cut, blister or rub can go unnoticed and take far longer to heal.

A diabetic foot check takes around 30 minutes. We test blood flow and sensation, look at skin and nails, check your footwear, and tell you plainly which risk category you're in and what to watch for.

Each foot contains 26 bones. Both feet together account for around a quarter of every bone in your body.

Add 66 joints and more than 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments, all packed into a structure smaller than your forearm and asked to carry your entire body weight, thousands of times a day, for a lifetime of roughly 150,000 miles.

It is a lot of moving parts. Which is why so much can go quietly wrong in there.

Almost every ingrown toenail we treat started with someone trying to fix a sore corner themselves.

When you dig down the side of the nail, you rarely get the whole thing. A small spike is left behind, and as the nail grows forward that spike drives into the skin beside it. Now it is genuinely ingrown, and often infected.

Cut straight across, not too short, and leave the corners alone. If a corner is already painful, let us take it out properly.

Toenails grow at roughly half the speed of fingernails, and slower still in winter.

It comes down to circulation. Your toes are the furthest point from your heart, and in cold weather your body prioritises the core. Less blood to the nail bed means slower growth.

Worth knowing if you are waiting on a damaged nail to grow out, or judging whether a treatment is working. Give it seasons, not weeks.

Sock marks at the end of the day can be harmless, but persistent swelling deserves attention. 🧦👣

Pay particular attention if the swelling affects only one leg, leaves a dent when pressed, or has not improved by morning. Sudden swelling with pain, redness or breathlessness needs urgent medical attention.

Your feet can swell as the day goes on, which means shoes that feel perfect in the morning may feel much tighter by the afternoon. 👟

A little extra room can make a big difference to comfort and help reduce rubbing, pressure and painful foot problems.

Diabetes can affect both circulation and sensation in your feet, meaning small problems may go unnoticed. 👣

A diabetic foot check helps assess blood flow, sensation and any areas that may need closer attention, giving you clear, practical advice on how to protect your feet.

Cracked heels are not always just a moisturising problem. 👣

Repeated pressure can cause thick callused skin to build up. As that skin becomes less flexible, it may split and form painful cracks.

Cream can help, but lasting improvement may also mean reducing the callus and addressing what is placing extra load on your heels.
