🦶 ** Pitted Keratolysis**

Do your feet spend long hours trapped in heavy safety boots? If you’ve noticed small, "pitted" craters on the soles of your feet, an unpleasant odor, or constant dampness, you might be dealing with **Pitted Keratolysis**.

We recently treated a patient suffering from this exact condition. Working long shifts in safety shoes with metal toe caps created a high-heat, high-moisture environment—the ultimate playground for the bacteria that cause pitted keratolysis! 🦠💦

The good news? It’s completely treatable. Here is the step-by-step approach we took to get their feet back to health:

1️⃣ **Tackle the Root Cause:** We used **iontophoresis** to significantly reduce excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). Less sweat = no environment for bacteria to thrive!
2️⃣ **Strict Hygiene Routine:** Daily washing with antibacterial cleansers and ensuring feet are 100% dry before putting on socks.
3️⃣ **Shoe Disinfection:** Treating work boots with antifungal/antibacterial sprays and letting them dry out completely between shifts.
4️⃣ **Targeted Foot Care:** Recommending the right topical treatments and moisture-wicking socks to protect the skin barrier.

If your work boots are causing your feet distress, don't just tough it out! Pitted keratolysis won't clear up on its own, but with the right treatment plan, you can get fast relief.

Diagnosing Thickened and Discolored Nails: Why Visual Assessment Isn’t Enough?

When a toenail becomes thick, brown, or discolored, the immediate assumption is often an onychomycosis (fungal) infection. However, appearances can be highly deceptive.
In the video below, we show two separate examples of nails that present with classic visual symptoms of a fungal infection.
Yet, in both cases, objective laboratory testing returned a negative result.

Why Visual Diagnosis Falls Short:

Many nail pathologies mimic the appearance of fungus. Thickening and discoloration can frequently be caused by:
Micro-trauma: Repetitive pressure from footwear or athletic activities.

Biomechanical Issues:Altered gait patterns causing friction on the nail plate.

Systemic Conditions: Psoriasis, eczema, or circulatory changes affecting nail growth.

The Importance of Testing Before Treatment.

Initiating antifungal therapies—whether topical or oral—without a confirmed diagnosis is clinically counterproductive. It can lead to prolonged, ineffective treatments, unnecessary financial expenditure, and delayed resolution of the actual underlying issue. Even when both the patient and the practitioner are highly confident based on a visual assessment, confirmation is essential.

Our Clinical Standard: At Foot Health Practice Bridgend, we adhere strictly to evidence-based protocols. Every fungal therapy pathway we undertake begins with a definitive diagnostic test. By eliminating the guesswork, we ensure that your treatment plan is accurate, targeted, and effective from day one.

If you are concerned about changes to your nails, let us provide you with an accurate diagnosis and a targeted care plan.

NAIL BRACING. IS IT EFFECTIVE?

This video shows a real before-and-after result from one of our lovely patients at Foot Health Practice Bridgend. She came to us struggling with a highly curved, painful nail that made walking a misery.

Thanks to the inovated nail brace system, she walked out of our clinic completely pain-free!

Why our patients love Nail bracing?:

* **Immediate Relief: The tension is lifted the moment it’s applied.

* **The Best Alternative to Surgery: No needles, no cutting, and no losing your nail.

* **Zero Recovery Time: You can put your shoes back on and get straight back to your day—no downtime required.

* **Natural Correction: It gently trains your nail and nail bed to grow flat and healthy again.

If you’re hiding your feet or dreading every step, you don’t have to suffer in silence. Let us help you walk on air again. 👣
