Perfecting My Foot

After suffering from ingrown toenails for years, I finally decided that I didn't want to live with the pain anymore. Instead of trying to figure out how to run, walk, and function normally with painful feet, I made an appointment with a podiatrist. He was incredibly kind and gentle, and he explained that I needed to have my toenail beds cauterized to prevent future problems. I had the procedure done, and ever since then, I hadn't had any problems. This blog is dedicated to podiatry, so that you can learn how to keep your feet healthy, comfortable, and free of problems.
