Dr. William Brown, DPM updated their address.
Please don't ignore the warning signs of a diabetic foot infection. These symptoms can include swelling redness and pain. Some diabetics don't experience pain. Another symptom of infection could be fluctuating blood sugars. Too often we see patients come into the Emergency room with a limb threatening infection that could have been prevented if caught earl enough. Please look at your feet daily If you are unable to have someone inspect them for you. At the first sign of a problem give us a call. (570) 207-2030
Over 2 million Americans seek treatment for plantar fasciitis (heel pain) each year. This is a very common condition and our treatment plan works to relieve the pain. Don't just live with the pain any longer.
Of the 16 million Americans with diabetes, 25% develop foot problems related to the disease. This is primarily due to a condition called neuropathy. Diabetic Neuropathy is a complication of diabetes that affects the nerves. The most common type of diabetic neuropathy is called peripheral neuropathy and affects the peripheral nerves. Peripheral nerves are the nerves that go out from the brain and spinal cord to the muscles, skin, internal organs, and glands. Peripheral neuropathy impairs proper functioning of these sensory and motor nerves. The most common symptoms of neuropathy include numbness and loss of feeling, usually in the feet and hands.
Cigarette smoking is the biggest cause of Peripheral Vascular Disease (disease of the arteries of the feet and legs) which often leads to pain on walking, ulceration, and in the most severe cases - gangrene and possible amputation. There are treatments available if caught early. Please give us a call if you are concerned about Vascular disease.
