Safe Toenail Trimming

Communal areas are the most likely place to be exposed to the fungi which attack your toenails. Showers in locker rooms, pools, and bath houses see a lot of traffic and provide the warm, wet, dark environments that fungi flourish in. Likewise, nail salons are a point of exposure for many people to these fungi. This is because these salons see a lot of feet coming in and out. And some people do not realize that although they handle the cosmetics of your toenails, they are not the experts in your toenail (and total foot and ankle care). So they go to their nail salon for help in clearing toenail fungus. This is not altogether wrong, since nail salons often stock over the counter products for toenail fungus. But they may not be able to offer you the range of advise, products, or other care that your podiatrist can. If you ever have a problem with your feet or toenails, be sure to contact your podiatrist for expert advise and treatment options.

One reason that toenail fungus can be spread at a nail salon is not using sanitary tools. If any tool is re-used before being sanitised, it can result in the spread of toenail fungus. You should double check the procedures at your nail salon to be sure that they are operating a sanitary business. Another way to double check that you are receiving sanitary care is to bring your own instruments. Many people feel more comfortable knowing that the instruments for their pedicure are used only for them. This means that you can clean and sanitize your own tools, as well as guaranteeing that you won't be sharing any germs that can cause Fungal nail infections, Athletes foot, Bacterial infections, Warts, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C.

If you are looking for a convenient pedicure kit, then we have such a product on our online store. Just visit: http://www.ourdoctorstore.com/vail/store/item.asp?ITEM_ID=480 to see the SOS Safe Salon Pedicure Kit.

Perhaps with all these tools you will feel confident in your ability to perform your own pedicures, saving you the time and money of going to the nail salon. These kits also make great gifts.

Findlay's Day of Dance

The Advanced Footcare Clinic will be at the Day of Dance for Health event sponsored by Blanchard Valley Health Systems! The event is to raise awareness for women's health issues, as well as enjoy a day to enjoy different dance styles, watch dance performance groups, take in music, eat good food, sign up for give-a-ways, receive health screenings and even win door prizes. Our office will have a booth at this event to share valuable health information about your feet. When you are exercising or dancing regularly you can really improve your over-all health. But nothing will hinder your ability to do so quicker than sore feet. So we want to give you tips on how to avoid this type of pain, as well as making you aware that we are available when you do experience foot problems. We will also have special offers and products from our office. Our display will include examples of our new therapeutic shoes. We want our patients to see that our shoes are not what they traditionally think of as therapeutic shoes, but they have been updated to offer great style as well as great footcare. And these shoes are available to all our patients, not just diabetics. We will also have an offer on a free pair of Dr. Comfort brand slippers for anyone who makes an appointment to see the podiatrist. And lastly, we will be offering free giveaways on some of our most recommended moisturizers, creams, scrubs, soaks, and other products.

The event will be held on Saturday, February 27th from 10:00am to 2:00pm. It will be in the University of Findlay's Koehler Center and the admission fee is a toothbrush and/or tube of tooth paste for charity. There is no preregistration required. Any questions can be directed to 419-423-5551. We look forward to seeing you that Saturday to enjoy yourself and learn all about women's health needs.
