Pippa Rutherford2025-05-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My 11 year old daughter had multiple verrucas. GPs no longer treat these and nothing from the chemist or natural remedies had worked & they were just increasing. She’d had them treated with another podiatrist abroad. That treatment not only didn’t work but had also been traumatic for her so she was extremely nervous going in. Lukes treatment was virtually painless (just one anesthetic injection that lasted 10secs or so and then she was happy watching Netflix while Luke got to work. This is her review: “Luke was really nice and didn’t rush me and reassured me. He told me what was going to happen step by step.” Gabriel Fialho Manochio2025-05-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Alistair Burt2025-03-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very good appointment. Like too many, I had left assessment and treatment too long. But any apprehension was cleared by a thorough examination, an explanation of what my options were, and what to expect going forward. Written information of treatment options forwarded within an hour. Impressed and happy to recommend. Naomi Berry2025-03-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lauren was helpful, knowledgeable and gave me treatment together with good foot advice. I am very grateful for this service. Scott Barnett2025-03-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started to have pain in my foot about a year ago. Initial diagnosis by my doctor wasn’t leading to any treatment plan. Frustrated, I searched locally and found My foot medic. Through a very thorough process of diagnosis i was given a treatment plan. I cannot thank My foot medic enough for their help in treating me. Sarah J2025-03-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

WHAT COMMON SPORTS INJURIES DO WE TREAT?
Tendinopathy
Tendons are crucial tissues that connect muscles to bones, enabling movement. During sports activities, these structures can become damaged or inflamed.
What is it? Tendinopathy refers to any injury or disorder of a tendon.
Common examples: Achilles tendinopathy, posterior tibial tendinopathy
Symptoms: Pain, stiffness, and reduced strength in the affected area
Ligament Sprains
Ligaments are strong connective tissues that hold bones together to form joints. When subjected to excessive strain, they can become injured.
What causes it? Sudden twisting motions or overstretching of the joint
Common examples: Ankle sprains, midfoot sprains
Severity levels: Grade I (mild), Grade II (moderate), Grade III (severe/complete tear)
Muscle Strains and Tears
Muscles are our bodies powerhouses, providing strength for movement and stabilisation. Sports activities can sometimes lead to muscle damage.
What is it? Overstretching or tearing of muscle fibers
Common examples: Calf muscle strain
Symptoms: Pain, weakness, and limited range of motion
Bone and Joint Damage
oints are formed by two or more bones coming together. They’re stabilised by ligaments and moved by muscles and tendons. High-impact sports or repetitive stress can lead to bone and joint issues.
Types of damage: Stress fractures, articular cartilage injuries, joint dislocations
Risk factors: Overtraining, poor technique, inadequate footwear
Long-term concerns: If left untreated, may lead to chronic pain or arthritis

LET’S ANSWER YOUR SPORTS INJURY QUESTIONS!
If you’re experiencing a sudden increase in injuries, it’s important to consider several factors that might be contributing to this change. Sudden increases in intensity or duration or exercise can overwhelm your body, leading to more frequent injuries. Are your shoes providing adequate support and are they appropriate for your activities? Worn-out or ill-fitting shoes can significantly increase your risk of foot and ankle injuries. Changes in your overall health, such as weight gain, decreased flexibility, or underlying medical conditions, can make you more susceptible to injuries.
Repeat injuries can also be caused by poor biomechanics (problems in the way we stand or move), this can lead to increased susceptibility for reoccurring pain. If you’re concerned about the frequency of your lower limb injuries, we recommend scheduling an appointment with one of our podiatrists. They can assess your biomechanics, footwear and activity levels to identify potential causes and develop a personalised plan to reduce your risk of future injuries. Remember, prevention is always better than cure when it comes to maintaining healthy, pain-free feet.
- Intense pain that doesn’t subside with rest or basic first aid. This level of pain often suggests significant tissue damage or a possible fracture.
- Significant swelling or bruising that develops rapidly and continues to worsen.
- Inability to bear weight or move the affected area without extreme discomfort. If you can’t put any pressure on an injured foot or ankle, it could signal a fracture or severe sprain.
- Visible deformity or misalignment of the injured area. This might include bones protruding at odd angles or joints that appear out of place, strongly suggesting a fracture or dislocation.
- An Injury that does not appear to be healing despite rest. This could suggest that further assessment and treatment are required.
