25.01.2022 Metatarsalgia is a common overuse injury described as pain in the forefoot. It is associated with increased stress over the balls of your foot.

Our podiatrists can determine the appropriate treatment to reduce pressure in the area and help ease your pain.

24.01.2022 Bunions normally present as bumps or a swelling on the side or top of the big toe joint. The bone and tissue surrounding the joint becomes misaligned due to undue pressure on the toes. This is a common foot condition normally, made even more common in women due to our poor shoe choices. Narrow, pointed-toe footwear pushes the big toe towards the other toes, causing the joint to protrude. High heels make the issue worse as it forces the toes into the front of the sho...e, further squishing them. In women, the biggest prevention method would be making sure you are wearing shoes with a larger toe box to allow your toes to sit comfortably and have enough room to wiggle. If you are already suffering from a bunion our podiatrists can help! They can provide footwear advice, orthotics and treatment techniques to relieve your pain and prevent further development. Call us on 6269 2038 to get on top of your bunion today!

20.01.2022 As a tradie, your most important tool is your health and given the physical nature of your job, its important that you go home safe, well and ready for action again the next day. To help you do this, follow a few simple steps: Before your shift, make sure to do a light warm up before starting work. Do some stretches for specific muscle groups such as quad or hamstring stretches if you do lots of squatting for work. Pace yourself and your workload througho...ut the day to avoid overuse injuries and fatigue. Talk to your workmates to ensure you are working in the safest and most efficient way possible. Speak up if you feel uneasy about the level of risk you are exposed to at work. Be willing to say no when required, even if it might make you unpopular at that moment. Chances are you are not the only one that feels unsafe and your "gut feeling" might save someone's life. Worksite supervisors and employers are legally responsible for ensuring safe worksites and conditions and will be held accountable if there are breaches of work site regulations. Look for advice from your podiatrist if you experience any aches or pains in your feet or lower legs that are persistent, rather than waiting till its bad enough to stop you from continuing work. Manage injuries immediately with the RICE method (rest, ice, compression, and elevation). See more

20.01.2022 Today we take a moment to remember those who gave their lives to protect the country we call home.

20.01.2022 One of the most common injuries faced by tradies are ankle sprains. This occurs when the ligaments that support the ankle joint rolls inwards under the leg (called inversion), straining the ligaments on the outside of the ankle that usually prevent this movement. This can sometimes happen when walking or running over uneven ground, or when quickly changing direction. As most people have rolled their ankle at least once in their life, it's common to think tha...t these injuries do not require rehabilitation; however, rehabilitation is essential after all ankle sprains, in order to reduce the likelihood of them happening again. Our podiatrists here at Hammond Podiatry want to help you on your road to recovery. If you have recently sprained an ankle, please get in touch with our team by contacting us on (08) 6269 2038 or head to the video tab on our page to find exercises that will help you manage your pain today.

10.01.2022 We spend a lot of time thinking about the health, growth and development of our children. Do you ever think about their bone development? When your child enters their teenage years, they go through a major growth spurt where they build one quarter of their adult bone mass in only two years. Did your anxiety just spike? Are you wondering how on Earth youre supposed to support such a dramatic development and encourage strong and healthy bones? Dont worry alon...g with Dairy Australia, weve got you covered. The word most of us associate with strong and healthy bones is calcium and youd be right. Our kids need an increase in calcium through out the teen years, increasing their daily intake to 3 serves. Milk, cheese and yoghurt are the biggest contributors to dairy serves but there are plenty of non-dairy options too. Exercise and vitamin D are also big contributors in promoting healthy bone development. The best exercise for your child to participate in is any weight bearing exercise. This includes sports such as football and netball. If you make sure they exercise outdoors, they will be getting enough Vitamin D to sustain their bone growth. Talk about killing two birds with one stone. Dont just take our word for it. If you want more information, head to the article on Dairy Australia https://www.dairy.com.au//healthy-/healthy-bones-for-teens.

08.01.2022 Corns and calluses are areas of dead, hard and toughened skin which can cause a great deal of discomfort and pain. Corns and calluses occur on bony areas that are subjected to high pressure and friction. Common causes are high levels of weight bearing activity (e.g. teachers, miners or athletes), improper footwear such as shoes with reduced cushioning, toe or foot deformities and altered gait patterns. Callus is commonly found on the bottom of the foot, around the heels and o...n the tops of the toes. Corns are similar to callouses however they have a root or core that burrows into the skin causing more pain than calluses. The Podiatrists at Hammond Park Podiatry can treat and help prevent callous by sharp debridement (removal by scalpel), padding, correcting the foot position with orthotics, and appropriate footwear. The Podiatrists at Hammond Park Podiatry can diagnose corns and callouses and provide you with advice on the appropriate treatment.
