- FungusToenail fungus, is embarrassing and no one wants to talk about it. It affects millions of Americans, and besides being unsightly, it can even be painful. Known medically as onychomycosis, much progress has been made in identifying and successfully treating this condition. There can be a hereditary predisposition to this Fungal infection as well as being contracted in damp areas, such as public gyms, showers, or pools. Once fungal debris becomes trapped under the nail our shoes and socks provide the perfect warm, moist and dark environment in which the fungus will thrive. As toenail fungus grows and spreads deeper into the nail, it causes the nail to swell and become discolored, to thicken and to crumble, and in some cases, it will cause the nail to completely detach. Treatment options have been largely limited to oral drugs, prescription topicals, and home remedies that have not been proven effective.

- Bunions ProblemsOrthopedic shoes are designed to give more comfort to those with bunions, corns, or other foot problems. Not everyone who wears orthopedic shoes has diabetes. A great variety of orthopedic shoes and inserts are available, no matter what style of shoe or type of sole you prefer.”

- Diabetic Foot CareDiabetes is a chronic disease causing high blood glucose (sugar) levels. Diabetes also weakens your immune system, making it more difficult for your body to fight off infections, which can, in turn, damage your nervous system. This damage can affect the ability to feel sensations in your feet.
- Fungus ToenailsTopical treatments alone are generally unable to clear the nail because of insufficient nail plate penetration. While oral drugs have exhibited some success, such treatment is associated with common adverse side effects, including gastrointestinal and skin disorders, headaches and abnormal liver function. However, there is some good news! Dr. Loren Miller, a Board Certified Podiatrist in St. Petersburg, Florida is providing his patients with a new approach to addressing toenail fungus that puts patient safety and comfort first through the use of noninvasive laser therapy. Laser Therapy provides a reliable, nontoxic option that is well tolerated by patients. The laser applies energy capable of penetrating the nail and precisely targets the infected areas without causing damage to the nail itself or surrounding skin. Following the procedure, the nail becomes healthier and clearer as it grows out. In a few short sessions, Dr. Miller can treat a patient who has been suffering with unsightly, deformed and discolored toenails right in his office in St. Petersburg Florida. The procedure requires no anesthetics, no risk of serious side effects, and patients are able to return to regular activities immediately, making this the perfect treatment option that we can all fit into our busy lives.
