Wart Wednesday!!!

Warts are definitely not the prettiest things that happen to our bodies. This is why we’re here to educate you on how to avoid them and treat them if you do get warts.

The medical term for Plantar Warts is Verruca Pedis. Warts are a form of the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). This virus is very contagious via contact with a surface that Verruca Pedis’ touch. We HIGHLY suggest you wear shoes or a form of barrier when walking on public or commonly used floors. Especially at pools or in change rooms!

It’s always wise to look at your feet often, but especially to confirm they aren’t warts present. The sooner warts are treated, the sooner they can be gone!

Bunions can be painful as it is….wearing shoes that are too tight on the foot doesn’t help!
A shoe such as the one pictured here give great relief of pressure off the sides of the foot. As shown in the second picture they have mesh that stretch to give those bunions space on either the inside or outside of the foot.
If you have bunions but can’t find a pair of shoes like these, make sure your shoes are wide enough! You should feel minimal friction/rubbing on the outside edges of your foot.

Book your next appointment here at Waterloo Foot Clinic for more tips and tricks to aid your bunion and foot pain!

Trouble getting your shoes on? Use a shoe horn!

We are now selling these 6” shoe horns! You can throw this device in your purse or bag or even in a coat pocket. Some shoes are tight or awkward to get on, these can help!

What does a good fitting/supportive pair of shoes look like? Well, here’s our suggestions….

1. The shoes should fit well and be comfortable when you FIRST try them on. Your feet will naturally “wear” into your shoes BUT you should NOT have to break them in for them to be comfortable.

2. Shoes with a wide sole that are difficult to bend, therefore supportive, aid the integrity of the shoe.

3. The back heel area should be hard/tough as well. This gives your foot support with each step.

4. Give your toes room! Your toes shouldn’t feel tight in the front of the shoe. We’d recommend a thumb width between the end of your big toe and the shoe.

5. Your “regular” shoe size is general. Shoe sizes vary brand to brand. Make sure you find a shoe that fits true to YOU!

We recommend reliable shoe brands such as Asics, Propét, Biotime, Portofino, and Walk Feet Pro.

You can also get your feet sized properly at our Foot Clinic or in a reliable shoe store!
