Poor Foot Circulation Solutions
(http://ow.ly/oy2J30n48sz)
If your foot suffers from circulatory difficulties, such as peripheral arterial disease (or PAD), there are a few things you can try to get the blood flowing properly through your foot. Lifestyle changes, such as quitting tobacco can help slow circulatory degradation, and exercises can increase blood flow to the underserved region.
#Effingham #Circulation #PreventiveMedicine #FootCare #BloodFlow
It's always good to remember that prevention is better than a cure. To stay in tiptop health, here are three things you should regularly get:
• Vaccinations: especially crucial for children and young adults who have yet to develop their immune system;
• Check-ups: helps prevent the formation, or further worsening of illnesses;
• Routine Tests and Exams: particularly critical for middle-aged and elderly patients who have weakened immunization to diseases.

The pandemic has been tough on our feet: Americans are going barefoot around the house, wearing slippers and other unsupportive footwear, exercising in worn shoes, and forgoing pedicures. Have you also been putting off a trip to your podiatrist? Delaying care could lead to serious complications, especially if you have diabetes. Make your appointment today.

It’s Diabetes Awareness Month!

You know you’ve done it: bathroom surgery. It may be tempting to tackle that ingrown toenail or callus on your own at home, especially during the pandemic. But taking foot care into your own hands can lead to dramatic complications for people with diabetes, including amputation, sepsis, and even death. Leave it to Dr. James C.

To our patients: We know you’re worried about COVID-19. But don’t try to treat a problem at home. Our office is taking extra precautions to keep you safe!! So don’t hesitate to #KeepYourAppointment.
We at Graham Family Foot and Ankle Care wish you and your family and your friends a warm and happy Thanksgiving. We are so thankful for our patients, friends and colleagues.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas here in the office...thank you Nurse Faith for making our office look so festive!
Holiday shopping, decorating, parties and traveling are all part of our holiday revelries. But while you’re making all that merriment, how happy are your feet?
You may be doing a lot of walking, dancing, standing and sitting in one position throughout the holiday season. Half of all Americans report experiencing foot pain at some point in their lives, according to a survey conducted by APMA. No one wants soreness or injuries to slow them down during the holidays, so it’s important to care for your feet so they can carry you through all those seasonal celebrations and chores. Call us at 217-342-2040 to schedule your appointment.
Big News!!!

Last Friday our office celebrated the holiday with our annual Christmas party! We all here at Graham Family Foot and Ankle Care wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas!
It’s the beginning of the year, which means you probably made some resolutions towards a new you. Perhaps you decided to eat better and exercise more. While these are both great ideas,
exercising too much too soon can cause overuse injuries, including foot and ankle sprains and fractures. Don’t let your newfound enthusiasm sideline your fitness goals! Dr. Graham can help you stay on your feet all year round. Call our office at 217-342-2040 for an appointment!
Our office will be closed December 31st - January 1st and will reopen on Monday, January 4th due to the holiday. We want to wish you and your family a safe and Happy New Years!

Would you like to take a peek at what we see???
Go to our Instagram page, grahamfamilyfootankle, to see a before and after picture of a post amputation wound that could not be fully closed at surgery due to additional skin loss which was secondary to gangrene. With five applications of Grafix, which took around one month, the patient had significant improvement!
