Athletes Foot

Also known as Tinea pedis, this is a common fungal infection that affects the skin, particularly in the areas between the toes. Common symptoms include itching, burning, cracking and scaling of the skin.

It is primarily caused by fungi, which develop through direct contact with an infected person or through contact with contaminated surfaces, such as locker rooms, swimming pool areas and communal showers. The fungus also thrives in warm and humid conditions, making it more prevalent among athletes, and those who wear shoes that are too tight for an extended period of time.

If left untreated, the infection can spread to the toenails causing a fungal nail infection. Regular podiatry care can help you effectively manage Athlete’s foot, prevent complications and reduce the likelihood of the infection recurring in the future.

Victoria Murray- “clinic was really easy to find…”

I booked in with Quantum Footcare to get a consultation and treatment for some calluses and hard skin that were starting to cause issues. When I arrived, the clinic was really easy to find and I was made to feel very at ease and welcome.The clinic was clean, light and comfortable. The consultation was very thorough. Annia started by checking over my feet, pin pointing any areas of concern as well as listening at my heartbeat through pulse points on my feet.

“I booked in with Annia to have my toe nails trimmed and calluses removed but walked out with brand new feet!

The practice is easy to get to, easy to park at and is super clean. Definitely 5 stars!

I received amazing care and service from Annia at Quantum Footcare. This was my first visit to Annia. I was made very welcome in her beautiful, clean and spacious clinic, which felt calm and professional. Although my main issues were toe nails and corns / hard skin, Annia quickly built rapport with me and uncovered that I have some pain as well as a suspicious lesion. After she had taken care of my main problems, she carefully examined the other aspects of my feet and gave me a full plan.The next morning she had written to my GP and asked them to consider further investigations.This visit...

Myself and my husband have been visiting Anya now for nearly a year, every 6 weeks. Myself after going to a nail salon, I had a reaction which caused my toenails to crumble and literally fall off. After visiting Anya regularly most of my nails have now returned to perfect condition. I cannot recommend her knowledge and expertise enough and the fact that she is also a lovely person. She makes me feel so at ease and I will always visit her regularly now even when my feet are completely better. Thank you Anya for everything
