Expert advice is provided by Nicolas Ivanoff, a podiatrist in Woolwichregistered by The Health & Care Professions Council (HCPC) and a member of the Society of Chiropodist and Podiatrist (MChs). Case study 1: Verruca "The verruca is one of the most common foot conditions I treat in my clinic as a podiatrist in Woolwich" says Nicolas. "A verruca can cause discomfort and can be considered unsightly, so a lot of my patients want to have it treated as soon as possible". "As a podiatrist in WoolwichI use the dry needling technique" Nicolas explains. "Once the area is numb from the local anaesthetic, I needle the verruca to treat it with a virus which causes the immune system to attack the verruca" says Nicolas of this core aspect of his work as a podiatrist in Woolwich "A dressing will then be applied to the lesion and the patient will be able to walk normally" Nicolas says, "and this factor is of great importance to my patients as a podiatrist in Woolwich. Recovering times are usually fast. "Most people report only minor soreness for a few days, similar to a bruise" Nicolas says "which is quite important to patients, in my experience as a podiatrist in Woolwich". Case study 2: Nail treatment "As a podiatrist in Woolwichmy patients often come to my clinic with problems such as an ingrown toenail or fungal infections affecting the toenails" Nicolas says. "Commonly, treating these conditions will involve trimming the affected nail or nails. We have invested in the latest technology of a water spray drill to ensure patients experience a maximum of comfort and hygiene during the trimming of the nail". "I am experienced in carrying out this type of treatment for a condition I see quite often in my work as a podiatrist in Woolwich" says Nicolas. "I know as a podiatrist in Woolwichthat my patients want to be up and about quickly following treatment. Recovery times from this type of treatment are quite rapid". Case study 3: Skin treatment "Treating the skin on the feet is an integral part of my work as a podiatrist in Woolwich. I offer skin treatments for the feet quite extensively in my work as a podiatrist in Woolwich" explains Nicolas. "This can involve removing calluses, corns, or treating cracked heels, using blades and a water spray drill". "I am aware as a podiatrist in Woolwichthat many of my patients like to be out of the clinic as quickly as possible and so they like the fact that the session can be successfully completed in as little as 30 minutes".
