14.01.2022 LOOK AT THAT SUPPORT! At FLB we are all about supporting your every step! Lets have a look at this case. * PATIENT: - Electrician presented with concern over sharp pain and fatigue in the both feet during his long working hours. - The pain is present in the first few steps in the morning and after an hour or 2 of being on his feet. ... * BIOMECHANICAL ASSESSMENT: (Refer to BEFORE shot) - Patient has pronoted feet (rolled in ankles) especially on the left side. - The left side is dropped in more than the right as the body is compensating for leg length difference. * RESULT OF ASSESSMENT: What does this all mean? - The body is trying to correct the leg length difference by everting the longer foot/leg to shortening the longer leg (left side) - When this happens, muscle imbalances occur and the body is mal-aligned. Therefore, his Tibialis posterior and anterior muscle strength is reduced. * MANAGEMENT PLAN: (Refer to AFTER shot) - Footwear education- a supportive and wider steel cap boot was recommended. - Strength resistance exercises to strengthen the weak muscles of the feet - Custom orthotics- to correct the leg length difference preventing the body from over working by aligning the body, correcting foot position and optimising muscle balances and gait.

Activities such as sports and ballet. A bunion is irreversible unless surgically removed and can increase at a rapid rate if not managed appropriately. A cushion pad can help ease the pain however strengthening specific muscles and aligning your body is required to help stop the bunion from getting worse!

08.01.2022 2CM LEG LENGTH DIFFERENCE! Patient complained of knee, hip and back pain on his right side. After a thorough biomechanical assessment it was predicted that the patient had a leg length difference.... The patient was recommended to perform a CT bone scan to determine exact leg length difference. RESULTS: - Right leg 2CM longer than left leg. - The pain was due to mal-alignment of the body causing muscle imbalances and muscle weakness as the longer side needs to work harder to compensate for the shorter side. MANAGEMENT: - Patient educated on footwear. - Referred to chiropractor for hip adjustments and hip work. - 4mm Heel lift inserted on right foot orthotic. - Overtime, the heel lift will be increased. - Special medical graded shoes to be organised to address the leg length difference. #legs #length #photooftheday #beforeaftershot #before #after #foot #feet #running #shoes #walking #healthylifestyle #health #podiatry #footdoctor #doctor #walking

Prolotherapy also known as proliferation therapy is an injection-based treatment used in acute/chronic musculoskeletal condition and connective tissue injuries such as Arthritis, Achilles Tendinitis and Plantar fasciitis. Prolotherapy involves the injection of glucose and local anaesthetic into soft tissue to stimulate a healing respo...nse by increased release of pre-collagen growth factor (PGF). This solution acts not as a nutrient, but by stimulating the bodys natural ability to repair these tissues, encouraging growth of new ligament or tendon fibers Multiple treatments encourage additional tissue growth to restore and strengthen the affected area The appointment duration will be approx. 30 minutes involving preparations, treatment and recovery. An individual will require 3-5 sessions spaced out 2-6 weeks apart. #injury #sport #ndis #medicare #podiatry #foot #feet #walking #running #relax #beach #sportinjury #photooftheday

02.01.2022 WHAT A WART!! Do you have patch of thickened skin with spots in the centre? Is it painful? Has it been there for a long time? Is it spreading to other areas of the foot? If so CONTINUE READING! This might be a Wart (causing a virus known as Humanpapilloma virus) HPV. These Persistent virus are often misdiagnosed and ignored. The body often doesnt know the wart exists. ... WHY SHOULD I SEE A PODIATRIST? We can accurately diagnose the lesion, treat it appropriately and provide necessary education and advice to reduce exposure to risk factors causing warts. As mentioned above, the body doesnt usually know the wart is there. As a podiatrist we can debride (remove skin) the wart till pin point bleeding to notify the body (immune system) that there is a wart on the foot activity. From there we apply the necessary treatment. TREATMENTS- There are many treatment approaches for warts such as - freezing the wart - salicylic acid - silver nitrate application - laser therapy - surgically removing the wart. Some warts are persistent and can require more treatment sessions to cure than others. In addition, wart treatment is also influenced on the patients foot hygiene and compliance to reduce exposure to risk factors. #warts #foot #dryskin #podiatrist #health #healthylifestyle #blogs #feet #healthyfeet #happyfeet #photooftheday
