Podiatrists are extensively trained healthcare experts who aim to solve foot problems. They deal with various conditions such as foot pain, injuries, infections, deformities, and skin and nail problems. They specialize in examining the feet, making accurate diagnoses, and determining appropriate treatment methods.

Podiatrists may apply various treatment methods specific to foot-related issues. These may include custom foot orthotics, orthoses, foot massages, physical therapy exercises, and skin and nail care. Additionally, podiatrists provide advice on foot health and care to prevent the recurrence of foot problems.

Podiatry closely collaborates with other healthcare professionals. They work closely with orthopedists, physiotherapists, pediatricians, dermatologists, and other specialists to ensure the best foot health and care for patients.
