  • Importance of Education of the Diabetic Patient by their Health Care Team

    It is no surprise that the United States is always at the top of the obesity charts, and with obesity comes type 2 diabetes. With that comes all of the co-morbidities (diseases also caused by being diabetic) and life-altering and threatening complications. While preparing for a board exam last year,...

  • What should I do with a smashed toe?

    Given you are diabetic, I would not encourage any home management such as trying to drain the hematoma, collection of blood under the nail. She likely will lose the nail down the road, so if it becomes loose, try to clip it back so it does not get traumatically ripped off while putting on her socks and shoes. When we X-ray her making sure nothing is fractured however centered on a position to go get it checked, try a more firm supportive shoe because that will limit how much pressure goes on the toe, and ice and elevate as needed, protecting her skin as your diabetic and being conscientious of how much time you are applying the ice. READ MORE

  • My toe bump?

    Typically when you get a blister or callus formation on the outside of the fifth toe is commonly related to either hammertoe deformity or a small area of bone that creates a prominence/pressure area that combined with your shoe gear you get either the blister or the callus. Using soft fabric toe boxes or shoes that have a higher toe boxed can help. I would avoid any type of medicated padding however using something like a silicon toe tube can help or even some people prefer a Band-Aid if there is shoes do not have enough room to allow for padding. Ultimately this can be fixed surgically if it continues to not improve with padding and shoe changes. READ MORE

  • Should I see a doctor about this?

    Yes, I encourage you to go see a healthcare provider for at least an x-ray. With bruising and swelling length added severally suggestive of either a bone or soft tissue injury that may require immobilization or professional treatment READ MORE

  • What to do about my foot pain?

    It is difficult to say her assess someone in a picture like this but a common reason I see people getting outside of the ankle pain or swelling with jobs that stand is a usually wearing a shoe that is too soft and flexible and they are putting too much weight on the outside of their foot. Easy home changes you can do would be making sure he wear firm supportive shoe if your job will allow it and if that does not help you can even add an over-the-counter insole such as a "power step" which is a great over-the-counter one that can be bought online READ MORE

  • I have white spots on the bottom of my feet. What could these be?

    White spots can be several various dermatologic rashes or conditions. The first thing I ask patients is if you have any new shoes or socks or are using a cleaning product that may come in direct contact with your skin. Some of the most common conditions are: 1. dry skin (xerosis) --> treatment would be consistent use with an OTC lotion such as Vaseline, aquaphor, or amlactin. 2. athlete's foot (tinea pedis) --> while this most commonly is red, peeling skin that itches or burns, it can range from wet or peeling tissue in between the toes or small blisters/pustules; dry your feet well and try an OTC anti-fungal cream. If on plantar skin, powders work better in between the toes. 3. contact dermatitis/allergic reaction to something you are exposed to or possibly systemic (in your body such as eczema) will respond to an OTC steroid like hydrocortisone. If the skin does not improve, you can call a dermatologist or podiatrist to assess and they may rx a stronger topical. READ MORE

  • I rip off my toenails?

    Onychotillomania is a compulsive behavior in which a person picks constantly at the nails or tries to tear them off. It can be categorized as a body-focused repetitive behavior and can be associated with psychiatric disorders such as depressive neurosis, delusions of infestation, and hypochondriasis. I would definitely recommend starting by discussing it with a primary care doctor and they can assess and point you in the correct direction. It may not hurt, but it can cause nail damage down the road. READ MORE

  • I have a mole on my feet?

    it is difficult to tell of that is blood deep under your skin or a "mole" from the picture, but I 100% wound biopsy something that showed up abruptly of that size. That can be done with dermatology or a podiatrist . READ MORE

  • Do acupressure slippers work for relieving pain?

    Acupuncture is considered "alternative medicine" for which I am not trained. Pain, numbness, and inflammation can be from multiple separate issues or one particular thing such as a neuroma. When it comes to shoe changes, most foot conditions improve with a properly fitting shoe (especially width), but most important is stability and motion control (not soft or squishy!) If you are taking any anti-inflammatories and tylenol and have had no improvement, I encourage you to follow up with a care provider for X-ray and physical exam! Good luck! Elizabeth A.
