25.01.2022 COVID-19: Podiatry is considered to be an essential service. As 80% of our client base is classed as elderly we take the COVID-19 threat seriously. Extra measures have now been taken on broad to ensure our patients safety. . We have adapted to the social distancing rule with our waiting room chairs reduced to 1/4. Allowing adequate distance between chairs. . We ask all our patients if they have a support person bringing them to ensure they wait outside or in the car. We will... ring them once the treatment has been completed. This minimises patients in the waiting room. . We ask that each patient enters the clinic no more than 5 minutes prior to their treatment time to reduce traffic within the waiting room. .

02.01.2022 Osgood-Schlatters disease (OGD) is one of the most common causes of knee pain in children aged 9-14. . . Cause: it’s thought that during a rapid growth spurt the bond, muscles and tendons all grow at different rates. In OSD the patella tendon that connects the patella into the shinbone pulls on the growth plate at the end of the shin bone. .... .

The pain is often made worse when doing activities such as jumping, waking up stairs or hills and running. . . Treatment: activity modification, rest and ice are often the first things tried for OGD. Stretching, strengthening and strapping are also important factors in reducing pain. At Killarney vale podiatry we also have shockwave therapy available for those with chronic OGD. . .
