Mobile Podiatrist in Falkirk, Cumbernauld, Bearsden and Milngavie.

Skin problems on your feet, such as hard skin on your heels or corns and calluses on your toes or the sides of your feet can be very painful. If this is untreated these can increase pressure on the skin and create a localised infection and potentially ulceration. Dry skin on your heels can also crack and become very uncomfortable and painful, and in some case fissure and become infected.
