Call us at 864-288-0048 for an appointment or if you have any questions! Yes No My toenails are streaked, discolored and thickened. (May mean your nails have a fungus. We can treat this with oral medications such as Lamisil, topical medications such as Penlac and surgically. The sides of my toenails dig into the skin and hurt. (May mean you have an ingrown toenail. This can be treated in the office. Doctor Rainer does a procedure that can permanently correct this problem.) I have a large bone/bump behind my big toe. (Probably a bunion which is inflamed/enlarging. This can be treated with Orthotics or splinting. Doctor Rainer does outpatient surgical correction of bunions as well.) I get a painful cramp in the ball of my foot in shoes and after rest. (A neuroma, a nerve problems, is a common culprit. Neuromas can be treated with decompression, injections, orthotics, or they can be surgically removed.) We are also using an injection technique using a special alcohol mixture to avoid traditional surgery! My toes aren't straight-they curl, are bent and hurt. (Hammertoes can be painful, especially in shoes. These are treated with padding, management of associated corns and callouses, or they can be surgically corrected.) My heels hurt all day, but it is worse in the morning or after rest. (Probably due to a condition called Plantar Fasciitis or Heel Spur Syndrome. This is treated with OTC orthotics, Custom Molded Orthotics, injections, NSAIDs, Night Splints, Physical Therapy OssaTron, endoscopic surgery or NEW! TOPAZ LINK! ) My feet are always dry and scaly-they also itch. (Often due to athlete's foot- tinea pedis, a fungal infection. This is treated with prescription creams or oral medications) I have numbness, burning, infection, persistent pain, a skin rash, an open sore or wound. (Any of these conditions should receive immediate professional attention!) If you answered YES to any of the above questions, call Foothills Foot Care for an appointment @ 864-288-0048. Thanks for taking this test! Foothills Foot Care Center. Greenville - Greer, SC. Dr. Gerard F. Rainer, DPM. Foot Specialist/Surgeon/Podiatrist |
