When To Call A Podiatrist

Podiatrists are the experts on feet and ankles and should be the first doctor you call when your child is experiencing pain or discomfort.

Podiatrists treat foot and ankle problems for patients of all ages, especially children. If you notice any change to your child's nails or skin on the feet or ankles, that is when you know your child should be evaluated by a podiatrist.

If your child has diabetes or poor circulation or develops abnormal symptoms, call Dr. Vail immediately. A diabetic patient is at much greater risk for serious complications. A diabetic patient should see a podiatrist at least once a year where on not symptoms are present. Regular check ups are a great way to keep your feet and ankles healthy.

Most importantly, call Dr. Vail first when you have pain or any issue that affects your child's feet and ankles.
