Routine and Preventive Foot Health
Your feet support you every day. Taking care of them with regular checkups can prevent long-term problems, especially if you have conditions like diabetes, arthritis, neuropathy, or poor circulation. At TLC Family Footcare, we encourage routine foot care visits to address minor concerns before they become major ones.
This is what preventive care includes.
- Nail and Skin Inspections
- Monitoring for Infections, Injuries, or Structural Changes
- Safe Trimming of Nails and Calluses
- Footwear Guidance
- Advice on Daily Hygiene and Moisture Control
Regular checkups help catch concerns like fungal infections, corns, or unusual swelling early—making treatment easier and outcomes better.
Diabetic Foot Care
If you live with diabetes, foot care is not optional—it’s essential. Diabetes can reduce circulation and damage nerves (a condition known as peripheral neuropathy), which means injuries, pressure points, and wounds may go unnoticed until they become serious. At TLC Family Footcare in Clarksville, TN, we provide focused, non-surgical diabetic foot care to prevent complications and preserve mobility.
Why Diabetic Foot Care Matters
Even small cuts or blisters can escalate into infections or ulcers in diabetic patients. Numbness from neuropathy may prevent you from feeling these issues until they worsen. Regular foot exams allow early detection and intervention, helping you stay ahead of problems that could otherwise lead to long-term complications—even amputation in severe cases.
When to Schedule Diabetic Foot Care
- At Least Once a Year, or More Often if You’ve Had Ulcers, Injuries, or Neuropathy
- If You Notice Color Changes, Cold Feet, Wounds That Won’t Heal, or Foot Numbness
Pediatric Foot Care
Children’s feet grow and change rapidly. Early foot care is key to supporting proper development, especially if your child is active in sports, learning to walk, or experiencing pain. Dr. Paulo Yen provides gentle, knowledgeable pediatric foot care to help kids move confidently and comfortably from early childhood through adolescence.
When to Bring Your Child In
If They Complain of Recurring Pain in the Heel, Ankle, or Toes
If Their Shoes Wear Unevenly, or They Avoid Walking or Running
If You Notice Walking Irregularities, Toe Walking, or Unusual Posture
If They Develop Growths, Rashes, or Toenail Issues
Our goal is to treat conditions early and conservatively, with minimal disruption to your child’s activities. We also help parents understand what’s normal during growth stages—and when intervention is helpful.
When to Seek Professional Foot Care
Even if you don’t have foot pain, there are times when seeing a podiatrist is the best step. You should schedule an appointment if.
- You Have Diabetes or Circulation Problems
- Your Toenails Are Thick, Discolored, or Difficult to Trim
- You Notice Skin Changes Like Sores, Scaling, or Redness
- You’ve Had Foot Pain for More Than a Few Days
- You’re Unsure if Your Shoes or Inserts Are Providing Proper Support
