But we have an effective procedure that, in many cases, can restore sensation, if the condition is caught early enough.  So, if you’re experiencing such symptoms, don’t drag your feet – call us immediately!

BV Foot Clinic: Don't be Hardened to the Dangers of Calluses



                                                                        Don’t be Hardened to the Dangers of Calluses

Foot calluses are generally considered harmless, and they usually are; but they can also signal the presence of serious conditions. For example, they sometimes form because of irregular gaits caused by misaligned foot bones. Of course, they can also result from ill-fitting shoes or long periods of walking. In any case, they can be painful, and may become infected, especially on diabetics, or those who try to file or shave them off. So, don’t be hardened to the potential dangers of calluses; let us remove them swiftly and safely.
