Ageing feet

As we age our skin naturally becomes thinner, loses its elasticity and takes longer to heal. As a result our feet can cause us pain and discomfort. It doesn't have to be like this.  A simple foot care routine can make all the difference.

Calluses and corns are common causes of foot pain as we get older. Cannon Barn Podiatry treatments remove calluses and corns (see section on calluses and corns for more treatment information).There are some things that you can do to help keep your feet healthy and pain free: keep them warm; choose footwear that supports your feet and avoid those with plastic uppers; and exercise to help with blood circulation and to tone muscles.
