As winter is coming to an end, we need to get our feet ready for Summer.
Throwing on flip flops or non supportive sandals is the last thing to do.

In summer, our feet are more exposed to moist and damp environments such as the swimming pool and the beach.

Our feet are more prone to Verrucae (Plantar Warts). They are caused by the Human Papilloma Virus, which is contagious through direct person to person contact.

In order to prevent yourself from getting warts, try to wear water shoes or sandals in public places.

If the warts are not going away after a certain period of time or getting too painful, please try to visit your podiatrist.

One in 10 people with diabetes will develop a foot ulcer at some point.

An infected foot ulcer and/or reduction in blood supply will increase the risk of amputation, and, if not treated quickly and effectively, can result in early death!

Red flags to look out for during /in between your treatment:
1) Is it getting more painful?
2) Is your foot feeling warmer than usual?
3) Any new areas of discoloration or swelling?
4) Any new smell?
5) Body temperature above 38.3 degrees Celsius or lower than 36 degrees Celsius?

If you discover any breaks in the skin or blister, cover them with sterile dressing.

Your podiatrist or health practitioner will give your more details on how you will be dressing your ulcers at home. Your podiatrist will also offload the ulcer with either felt or advise you on getting a pair of insole.
