Foot Health Issues Rise from Neglect During Pandemic:
MD Podiatrist
One of the most important things we can do is focus on the health of our feet. While we often think about heart health and teeth care, Dan Michaels, DPM says people have been neglecting their foot health during this pandemic. Dr. Michaels has seen an increase in patients who have foot-related medical issues.
“There’s no doubt there has been a lot of people who have prolonged foot care, whether it be diabetic wounds or ingrown toenails,” says Dr. Michaels. He says he has been noticing an uptick in all age groups coming to see him for some type of treatment directly related to having delayed care.
