Do you experience significant foot pain or have an illness that predisposes you towards foot infections? You should consider seeing a foot specialist. Foot & Ankle Specialists of Cincinnati wants everyone to know that their office is currently accepting new patients and that regular podiatric services come with a few major benefits. 

Here are a few of the most important benefits:

• Better Than The Salon: Many people seek treatment for foot ailments at the nail salon. If you're dealing with ingrown nails, corns, or calluses, however, there's only so much a pedicurist can do during a session. A foot specialist, on the other hand, is a real medical professional. Your specialist will give you a much more comprehensive treatment and will use sterile equipment.

• Easier Than Self-Maintenance: You may find that it gets harder to take care of your feet when your vision gets weaker or as it becomes harder to reach them. Even tasks that used to be simple may be challenging. Seek a foot specialist if it's hard to practice foot care at home.

• Monitors Diabetes: People with diabetes often develop foot issues, which include slow healing sores, pain or numbness, skin color changes, and swelling. By seeing a foot specialist regularly, however, you can keep your diabetes symptoms in check and lower your risk of amputation by up to 85%.

• Helps Alleviate Foot Pain: Whether your suffer from bunions, improper arch support, or arthritis, your foot specialist will find you a treatment that will provide lasting pain relief. Orthotics (foot inserts), for example, can give your feet proper support while you walk or stand.
