Children's Feet Treatment
Children’s feet are soft and pliable making them prone to damage from shoes which are too small. If you have any concerns about your child’s feet or walking pattern, a visit with a Kara Lukins podiatrist may help to determine if it is a developmental stage that they will grow through or if there is a condition present that may need treating.
Heel Pain Treatment
Heel pain is one of the most common conditions treated by podiatrists. The most common incidence of heel pain is seen in middle-aged men and women. It is also seen in those who take part in regular sporting activities and those significantly overweight and on their feet a lot. Heel pain can also occur in children.
Sports Injury Treatment
Sporting activity – walking, running, jumping – places greater physical demands on the body than normal day-to-day activities. While running, your feet can absorb up to 3 times your body weight. Not surprisingly, injuries to the foot and lower limb make up a large proportion of sporting injuries.
