CONDITIONS

Foot, ankle or lower limb pain? We can help.

 Here you'll find an ever-growing list of many of the conditions we specialise in helping you with at Tweed Podiatry. This includes conditions specific to the lower limb plus information on systemic conditions that can impact lower limb health.

Podiatric Medicine, like all branches of Medicine, is vastly complex - we've aimed to keep things as brief as possible whilst not missing key points that deserve a mention. But if you're strapped for time, each article has a highlights section at the top.

Quick disclosure: This is by no means an exhaustive list and far more is covered during your consultation with us. None of this information is intended to be, or to replace, medical advice or treatment. See our terms of use for more information. The bottom line is this - if you have a foot, ankle or lower limb problem, or a condition that may affect these parts of your body, contact us for personalised advice and treatment.
