Quite often people come to us and their main is issue is very dry, cracked skin. Frequently it that has been that way for years. They find that despite using moisturiser on their feet, they still can’t shift it. There are a few clues to look out for that it might in fact be a fungal skin infection:
- Peeling, flaky skin
- Redness to the border of your foot or little red spots
- Dry skin not just to your heels and border of feet, but the underneath and on the ends of your toes
- Check your nails! Are any yellow, crumbling or discoloured? This can be a sign of a fungal nail infection and this can cross into your skin. It can go from your skin to nail too
- Only one foot has dry skin
We can help you come up with a plan of action and give you an expert opinion. Whether it is a new problem or one you have tolerated for years, we hope that people understand there is no shame when you enter our clinic.
