Toenail trimming seems simple, but the details matter more than you'd think! ✂️

🦶🏼 The basics: trim every 6-8 weeks (toenails grow slower than fingernails), cut straight across — never rounded — and stop before you expose the nail bed. Soften nails first with a warm soak, use proper toenail clippers, and file any sharp edges after.

If you have diabetes, poor circulation, or neuropathy, small nicks can turn into bigger problems fast — professional trimming is the safer route. 👨🏻‍⚕️ Same goes for older adults with thicker nails, or athletes putting repetitive pressure on their toes.

Noticing thickened, discolored, or painful nails? Don't wait it out — let's take a look.

In the right hands — and on the right support. 👣

👟 That off-the-shelf insole is a shot in the dark. A custom orthotic is molded to your exact arch and gait, so it corrects alignment and relieves heel and arch pain instead of just cushioning it.

👨🏻‍⚕️ From Albuquerque to Taos, our board-certified specialists take a conservative approach — fitting you for orthotics when they’re truly the right call. Don’t let foot pain slow you down. Get back out there!

👨🏻‍⚕️ In the right hands, a bent toe is an easy fix.

🦶🏼 A hammertoe forms when a muscle imbalance bends a toe at the middle joint. Early on, it’s flexible and very manageable — footwear changes, padding, and custom orthotics. Wait, and it can stiffen into painful corns.

🏥 From Albuquerque to Taos, our board-certified specialists take a conservative approach and treat the problem before it grows. Don’t let it slow you down — get back out there!

🩴 Hiding your toes in closed shoes all summer? ☀️ Toenail fungus is the most common reason patients put off sandals — and it rarely clears on its own.

❗ 5 signs it’s time to be evaluated:
• Thickened or crumbling toenails
• Yellow, brown, or white discoloration
• Nails lifting away from the nail bed
• A faint odor or debris under the nail
• One nail spreading the problem to its neighbors

👨🏻‍⚕️ The earlier it’s treated, the better the result — and the sooner you’re sandal-ready.
