When you’re sick or injured, you go to no one else but the doctor. However, not all injuries or illnesses are well known by your typical doctor. Sometimes you have to visit a specialist.
In my case, when I experienced tremendous foot pain, I had to visit a specialist at a podiatry clinic. I went to East Coast Podiatry to had my foot checked up.
I was apparently experiencing a severe case of plantar fasciitis. It’s an inflammation of the plantar fascia that damages the tissue. Fortunately, I came just in time to have my foot checked because if it was left unchecked for more than 8 weeks, it could’ve gotten worse.
Plantar Fasciitis or heel pain is common for individuals like me who partake in stressful physical activities. I was playing sports all the time without realizing that the pain in my foot was turning into something more serious! I thought it was just a mere exhaustion that caused the pain.
One checkup, please
As the pain grew worse, I knew I had to visit a doctor. Once I visited a podiatrist, I was instructed to undergo plantar fasciitis treatment in Singapore to alleviate the pain as soon as possible.
One checkup can make all the difference. I discovered that if I haven’t gotten checked up sooner, the pain could have gotten worse. Apparently, if plantar fasciitis is left unchecked beyond 6 to 8 weeks, it could have become plantar fasciopathy. It could have caused structural degeneration. This kind of pain requires a more focused treatment through surgical means.
I knew I was lucky enough to get diagnosed immediately! One week late to the doctor and I could have gone through worse pain.
There are different ways of treatment for plantar fasciitis. One of the most common solutions is to purchase custom-made orthotic insoles in Singapore. It’s a thrifty way to maximise the comfort for your feet in the long run! In the process, you’ll not only make your feet comfortable, but you’ll prevent the inflammation from getting worse.
Flat foot insoles in Singapore are also common for those who have flat feet.
I invested in a pair of customised insoles not only to prevent my feet from gaining plantar fasciitis, but to experience maximum comfort in the long run.
My recommendation
If you’re experiencing any kind of foot pain, I highly recommend going to the nearest foot and ankle specialist in Singapore immediately. The pain you’re feeling might be something worse than imagined, so it’s better to be safe than sorry
A podiatrist can save your life, or in this case, your feet! So don’t hesitate to have yourself checked up if your feet are feeling much worse than usual. My foot pain could have gotten worse if I haven’t visited the doctor at my earliest convenience.
Visit the nearest podiatry clinic near you! I recommend East Coast Podiatry for a quick and convenient checkup. Their specialist will attend to your needs as soon as possible for fast and viable treatments.
