Year round our podiatrists at Midtown Podiatry treat many dermatological problems. Jay Cutler, the quarterback of the Chicago Bears, is susceptible to some of these podiatric issues since revealing in 2008 that he suffers from Diabetes. Diabetic patients need to pay extra attention to their feet as they can really give an insight to your current health. In New York City, we are always on our feet and with the constant daily weather changes we have been experiencing lately, our feet are having to adapt to cold, warm and even wet atmospheres. Injuries, Diseases, shoes and even weather are all reasons why New Yorkers may have problems with their feet.
The following is a list of common symptoms that appear on the feet — and what they mean.
Blemishes or Spots That Develop Into Ulcers: When spots on your feet suddenly turn ulcerous, that’s a bad sign, because it’s an almost surefire indicator that you are suffering from Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Unfortunately, diabetesalso causes numbness of the feet, which can mean that an ulcer can go for a surprisingly long time unnoticed — unfortunate because catching diabetes early can make it much easier to treat with diet alone rather than pharmaceuticals.
Cold and/or Blue Feet: If your feet occasionally become or are normally blue, that’s an indicator of poor circulation in the feet. In women with cold feet, this is less true — ladies seem prone to cold feet in general (ironic since it’s typically men who get cold feet in the metaphorical sense, much like Jay Cutler did with Kristin Cavallari) — but blue feet always indicate a problem. Poor circulation might mean that your shoesare too tight, but it’s actually more often an indication of a hypoactive thyroid gland, which can result in a host of other minor maladies.
Swelling of the Feet: Severely swollen feetare often an indicator of extreme hypertension, and can also be indicative of heart disease. On the other hand, they can also be a case of edema which is much less dangerous. Mildly swollen feet can mean a less extreme form of high blood pressure, or can be a sign of an infection. In any case, swollen feet are almost always a good reason to come speak with one our podiatrists immediately.
Toenail discoloration: Toenails can become discolored because of a variety of conditions that range from a fungalinfection to kidney, liver, or heart disease. A sudden change in toenail color (sudden, in toenail terms, means the discoloration becomes visible over the course of a week or so) is almost always a good reason to consult one of our physicians.
If you are experiencing any kind of abnormalities with your feet, consult one of our doctors at Midtown Podiatry, with locations in Gramercy Park, Midtown, Wall Street, Union Square and Long Island.
