Most people may think you’ll only need to see a podiatrist when you have a severe issue, but many common skin and nail complaints can also be helped with a visit to a podiatrist. Just like regular check-ups at your dentist for your teeth, general podiatry can help with an assortment of issues such as painful corns, hard callus, cracked heels, plantar warts, fungal skin and nail infections, sweaty skin and deformed toenails.
