  1. Why You Must Visit a Foot Doctor if Your Feet are in Pain? We are always on our feet all the time but we take them for granted. Stressful work that keeps us on our toes the whole day can lead to severe problems for our feet. Did you know that a single foot has 33 joints, 26 bones, 8 arches and a combination of more than 100 tendons, ligaments and muscles to aid its functioning? If even a single one were to experience issues, you will experience pain problems. If your feet are giving your problems, it is best to visit a podiatrist and seek professional help before the pain becomes debilitating. Singapore is popular for modern medical healthcare and expert professional help, yet many of its residents avoid visiting physicians because they prefer to take medicine on their own. Read below to know about why you should visit a physician when you experience any problem with your feet: What Type of Feet Problems Require a Visit to the Podiatrist? Feet problems can be in the form of ankle, toe or sole problems, and each one of them requires specialist care. Something like a planter wart will require a different course of treatment from an Achilles tendon rupture. At times, the problem can be a physical pain which you feel can be removed with some ointments, sprays, and pills, but in fact taking medicine without consulting a physician may lead to serious health problems such as nerve strain and diabetes. A podiatrist or foot doctor in Singapore will direct you in the right direction with regards to your feet problem and what course of treatment is most suitable for your needs. One of the most common causes for feet problems to rise is a sports injury. At times, the problem can be small, while at other times, there may be a broken bone; hence, what is required is proper treatment and therapy to remain fit and healthy. In such situations, you will need the immediate help of a sports physio in Singapore. The expert will first make a study of the problem to find out underlying conditions and prescribe a course of treatment that will set it right as soon as possible. They offer a holistic management of the problem so that it does not occur and you are able to deal with the problem with ease. Is It Necessary to Visit a Podiatrist? Yes, of course it is. Especially, when the problem is very painful, it is most important to get a diagnosis at the early stage itself so that the problem is corrected in the shortest possible time. For example, if your feet have developed bunions, getting it treated by a podiatrist in the early stage itself is vital. If this is not done, you will be unable to wear shoes and walk properly. It is possible to get further complications which may result you having to go through foot surgery. You may also get arthritis or toe displacement. Explore the web to know more about foot specialists in Singapore and their treatment strategies.
