Podiatrist Newtown PA

Podiatry is a branch of medicine that focuses on the treatment, diagnosis, and prevention of diseases, disorders, and injuries to the ankles, feet, and other related areas. A podiatrist is a certified doctor. An experienced podiatrist can assess your needs, and diagnose and treat any medical conditions related to the feet and ankles.

Patients who experience issues such as injuries to the feet and ankles, fungal infections, or diabetes-related complications should visit a board-certified podiatrist.

Sometimes, a podiatrist is referred to as a chiropodist, which is a more formal name for the occupation. A podiatrist has completed training in podiatric medical school and may have undergone specialized training that focuses on a specific area. In all cases, a podiatrist’s training is designed to focus on all systems and structures related to the foot, ankles, and lower limbs which is not limited to the joints, bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, and skin.

When Should I See a Podiatrist?

As noted, a podiatrist handles all issues relating to the foot, ankles, and lower limbs. This means they are trained to handle a wide range of general foot concerns and offer podiatry services for patients of all ages. For instance, a podiatrist can address a range of issues, including ingrown toenails, warts, bunions, corns, calluses, and foot and ankle pain. In addition, a podiatrist can also diagnose and treat fractures, sprains, and injury to the ankle, foot, and heel.

Patients may visit a podiatrist for the following reasons:

  • Get fitted for custom orthotic
  • Seeking diagnosis for fractures, sprains, tumors, development deformities and infection and disease of the skin and nails
  • Treatment for corn, calluses, bunions, infection, ingrown nails, and bone disorders
  • Work in coordination with a primary care physician to build a comprehensive treatment plan for foot and ankle related issues

Be sure to visit a podiatrist if you have foot or ankle pain that does not resolve itself. The foot is made up of a number of joints, ligaments muscles, and tendons, and when one is out of balance, it can affect your ability to stand, walk, or run.  A podiatrist can assess any damage to your foot and recommend the best solution for you.
