Age UK Portsmouth Footcare ServicesYou only get one pair of feet so it's important to take good care of them. During your lifetime your feet could walk the equivalent of four times around the world! To make sure that your feet stay fit you need to look after them, keeping them clean, warm and well supported. Nevertheless, many of us will develop some foot problems as we age, simply as a result of daily wear and tear. Anyone who has experienced foot pain knows only too well how debilitating it can be. Over time it can become a significant health issue because, if we can't walk comfortably, we're less likely to get out and about and take part in the social activities or daily exercise that is vital for our health and wellbeing. As we get older, an annual foot health check is as important as a sight or hearing test. Conditions like diabetes or circulatory problems can all be picked up by looking at the feet, and common problems like corns, cracked skin and ingrown toenails can be successfully treated. Never ignore minor foot troubles. They may not seem to matter very much at the time but they can get worse unless you seek proper attention and treatment. Fortunately most common problems can be treated successfully by a chiropodist or podiatrist - there is no difference between the two but most practitioners nowadays prefer to call themselves podiatrists. Age UK Portsmouth holds regular footcare surgeries at the Bradbury Centre each week with independent footcare specialist Camilla Edwards and independent foot health practitioner Kate Slater. 16–18 Kingston Road
