Your feet are a reflection of your health, and they frequently show the early signs of more significant medical issues, as we have repeatedly stressed. Give them the attention they merit!
A medical pedicure includes a foot bath, foot inspection, removal of corns and ingrown nails, shape of the nails, grooming of the feet, foot care as directed (cream, drops to prevent ingrown nails, cream with antibiotics for fungus), and foot massage.
For customers who are elderly or
who have issues with thickening skin, ingrown nails, or potential corns, this sort of pedicure is
advised.
We're giving you ten reasons for selecting a medical pedicure.

If untreated, ingrown toenails may be excruciatingly painful, swell, and even become infected.
Your toenails may be cut straight across by a foot specialist, who will also make sure there are no loose ends at the margins.
2. Remove painful corns
A painful corn, a tiny circular region of thickened, hardened skin, can be safely removed by a foot specialist. These are typically located on the bonier, non-weight-bearing areas of the foot—like the toes—where the skin is thinner.
3. Get your nails professionally cut or trimmed
Your nails should only be trimmed or cut by specialists. Whether you have a cracked or split toenail, it’s not worth exacerbating the issue.

During a medical pedicure, a chiropodist can remove calluses that have thickened. Calluses are layers of thickened, brittle skin that form because of friction or pressure. It is the skin's method of defending itself against these outside influences. Calluses can be accompanied with dry, scaly
skin, fissures, and a yellow, white, or grey color to them. If you're not cautious, calluses might cause other foot disorders and change your stride, among other unwanted effects.
