Treatment

We will visually assess your feet while taking an in-depth medical history. This will help us to get a good understanding of what may be the primary cause. 

We will complete a pain-free treatment aiming to get your feet back to a “neutral” condition. The nail treatment will consist of trimming, filling and thinning the nails to an appropriate shape. This will be followed by the physical debridement of any hard skin along the plantar surfaces including corns. Using a water spray drill all surfaces will be smoothed and finished with the application of moisturiser. 

Bring your feet back to a “neutral” condition; come and visit The Feet Team at Toorak Medical Centre.
