Our podiatry care
A comfort, wellness, and maintenance treatment for the feet, also essential as part of podiatric follow-up care:
- Nail trimming
- Cleaning of nail folds
- Removal of mild hyperkeratosis (calluses, small corns)
- Personalized advice and regular follow-up
Management of nail conditions:
- Ingrown toenails (various stages)
- Peri-ungual and subungual keratomas
- Nail fungal infections (onychomycosis)
- Onycholysis (nail detachment)
- Onychomadesis (nail detachment with shedding)
- Hyperonychia (thickened nails)
- Subungual hematomas
Specific techniques such as orthonyxia may be used to correct nail curvature and prevent recurrence.
Treatment and prevention of dermatological lesions:
- Plantar calluses
- Corns and soft corns (interdigital lesions)
- Hyperkeratosis (excess thickened skin)
- Heel fissures
- Dry skin
- Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)
Regarding plantar warts (treated by a dermatologist), the podiatrist may support the patient at the beginning of treatment and ensure follow-up care.
When lesions are related to mechanical stress or gait disorders, custom solutions may be provided:
- Orthoplastics
- Orthonyxia
- Custom orthopaedic insoles
These devices aim to reduce pain, correct foot pressure distribution, improve walking, and prevent recurrence.
The foot of a diabetic patient is particularly vulnerable and requires specific care. Even minor lesions can lead to serious complications (delayed healing, infection, and in severe cases, risk of amputation).
Prevention is essential. Health insurance providers generally cover two partially reimbursed podiatry visits per year as part of diabetic foot care monitoring.
