A podiatrist is an expert in every aspect of foot care. There are many reasons you might need to take advantage of a podiatrist, from something as simple as an ingrowing toenail to referred pain caused by a serious condition, such as Ankylosing Spondylitis. Common foot care problems can cause intense pain and cause mobility issues. They often require expert care to achieve adequate relief. Podiatrists don’t only deal with the feet, they’re also experts in diagnosing and treating conditions of the ankles, lower legs, knees, and even certain lower back conditions that cause referred pain further down the body.
