• Calluses

  Here, we give you an example of a guide to caring for a diabetic wound. This does not replace a visit to the doctor for proper diabetic foot care. If you are diabetic and have a wound or ulcer, it’s imperative that you see a podiatrist as soon as possible for proper treatment.
• Hammertoes
  Hammertoe repair: Depending on the severity and flexibility of the hammertoe, some are amenable to being repaired in-office. A tenotomy is a procedure in which the tendon either on the top or the bottom of the toe is transected. This releases the contracture causing the hammertoe deformity, thus straightening the toe. An evaluation by your Cincinnati Foot & Ankle Care podiatrist would be able to identify if you are a candidate for a tenotomy procedure.
