Dr Ira Bernstein Getting the Best from Your Podiatrist

Ensuring the health and function of one's feet is needed for overall well-being, yet it is often neglected or mishandled. When issues arise, common missteps can prevent people from receiving the necessary care. For that matter, Dr Ira Bernstein highlights the prevailing errors made in the pursuit of foot health.

 One widespread mistake is the delay in seeking professional help. It is not uncommon for most people to dismiss foot pain or abnormalities as transient issues that will resolve independently, often waiting until symptoms exacerbate. This hesitation can turn minor treatable conditions into chronic or more complex issues, necessitating a more aggressive intervention than initially required.
