Answering your questions about foot health - Senior Podiatrist Elliott Yeldham, East Coast Podiatry

Podiatrist Elliott Yeldham discusses various foot and leg issues and offers solutions. 1. Thomas, an avid runner, seeks advice on persistent heel pain despite using proper running shoes. Podiatrist advises against running on an injured heel and recommends rehabilitation. 2. Rachel wonders why she experiences heel pain with flat shoes but not with high heels. Podiatrist explains that wearing high heels tightens the calf muscles, which can pull on the Achilles tendon when switching to flat shoes. He suggests measures to loosen the calf muscles while continuing to wear high heels. 3. Patrick has knee pain when descending stairs, and his doctor attributes it to aging. Podiatrist emphasizes that there are management options available, especially when the symptoms manifest early in senior years, and advises Patrick to seek help from a podiatrist in his area. 4. Joseph asks about his "ruined" Achilles and the necessity of surgery for Achilles Tendonitis. Podiatrist clarifies that surgery may be required for a ruptured Achilles, but conservative care from a podiatrist is worth exploring for other cases. 5. Cynthia, a volleyball player, experiences bruised and falling toenails. Podiatrist advises against pulling them off and suggests addressing underlying conditions related to activities, footwear, or biomechanics. 6. Jonathan suffers from severe morning heel pain, likely Plantar Fasciitis. Podiatrist cautions against relying on temporary solutions like injections or painkillers, which mask the pain without addressing the underlying issue. 7. Gerald has a hip imbalance and regularly visits a chiropractor. Podiatrist explains that true limb length differences, rather than muscle imbalances, likely cause the discrepancy. He recommends Gerald to seek help from a podiatrist in his area for advice. In summary, Podiatrist Elliott Yeldham emphasizes the importance of seeking professional help from podiatrists to address foot and leg issues.
