Foot care for you and your family

It is advisable for people of all ages to have their feet checked periodically in order to avoid serious future foot problems. As you grow older it becomes all the more important for you to get your feet checked periodically, to avoid serious problems. If your family have foot problems, you may be likely to inherit them. Contact Kate at Langley Footcare to schedule your appointment.

Fungal Nails treatment

We can treat:

Fungal Nails
Fungal infection causes thickened and unsightly nails which sometimes become painful. We can identify fungal infections in the nail and provide a treatment plan to deal with even the most stubborn infections.

Athlete's Foot
Athlete's foot is a skin infection caused by a fungus. In warm and moist conditions they tend to multiply. We can diagnose this condition and provide a treatment plan to eliminate it and prevent reoccurrences.

Verrucae / Warts
Verruca or plantar warts are caused by a virus in the outer layer of the skin which causes a localised thickening of the affected skin. Plantar warts are caught by contact with infected skin scales – for example from the floors of public locker rooms, shower cubicles and the areas around swimming pools. We offer various treatments including cryotherapy (freezing) and salicylic acid preparations. These options would be discussed during assessment.

Corns and calluses
Calluses and hard rough area of skin that develop on the feet, often around the heels, under the balls of the feet or around the toe joints. 
Corns generally develop over or around joints, though may develop anywhere. Often surrounded by callus, corns are usually hard and give the feeling of walking on a small stone. In most cases, discomfort from calluses and corns can be given with painless debridement.


Cracked Heels
Painlessly treated, we can reduce any excess hard skin and cracks, eliminating painful symptoms and vastly improving the skin’s appearance.

Nail Surgery
In cases of recurring or serious ingrowing toenails, the whole or a part of the nail is permanently removed under local anaesthetic. This is normally a last resort and in most cases we can usually remove the ingrowing toenail without resorting to surgery.
Routine treatments and home visits

Routine treatments and home visits

Routine Treatment
Most general conditions can be treated with a routine treatment, including nails, hard skin, corns and calluses. This can instantly transform your feet and provide much improved comfort and cosmetic enhancement. Contact us today to have your conditions treated. 

Biomechanics
Podiatric Biomechanics is the study of foot and leg function. Mechanical malfunction can result in numerous problems like foot, heel, knee or hip pain, or conditions such as plantar fasciitis.

An assessment may be required to study foot function both standing and in motion. Also, joint range-of-motion and muscle strength is assessed. Footwear advice, an orthotic (insole) or an exercise programme may be required to improve function and performance.

Home Visits (Domiciliary Visits)
Treatments are provided in the comfort of your home or you can come and visit us at the NIHP clinic in Sacriston . We offer a caring, and professional personal service.

We are based in Durham. Contact us today to schedule your appointment.
