Feet Come First

 

Sometimes, focusing on our foot health seems far from other health-related issues. We’re not sure why we take our feet for granted and prioritize other areas of health, but here are the facts: Foot health is another important part of your overall health.

Today, the doctors at Syracuse Podiatry want to express just how crucial foot care is. There are common foot concerns that worsen over time if left untreated. Unfortunately, we can create excuses for delaying appointments or rescheduling recurring podiatrist visits. We hope you’ll think differently as we share more reasons to focus on your feet.

Everything Is Connected

Do you think there is a connection between your foot and overall health? There is. There are many health conditions that a patient can first detect simply by noticing changes in their feet. When we fail to understand the significance of our foot health, we could miss out on other health concerns.

  • Foot health and heart health are related.
  • Nutrition choices affect your feet.
