MFD Outpatient hospital „Ilguciems” has launched a podologist’s office
Date added: 08 03 2013
Now a medical pedicure performed by a certified podologist is available as well as on Bullu Str. 9, in Riga.
A quality foot care is necessary for everyone, but it is especially important for people who are included in the risk group, for example patients with diabetes.
If people do not regularly take care of their feet, have unsuitable footwear, this could lead to various problems where a medical pedicure can help. In order to keep feet healthy specialists recommend having a quality pedicure once a month.
Comparing to a pedicure specialist, who takes care of healthy feet, a podologist evaluates the state of the skin and nails, removes warts, fungal infection damaged, ingrown and deformed nails. If it is necessary, a specialist sends a patient to an appropriate doctor such as a dermatologist or an orthopedist.
A podologist helps people with an excessive feet sweating, consults on how to take care of feet at home, what kind of shoes to wear, etc.
The procedure is implemented by a special device that removes hard skin etc. without affecting healthy skin.
