Verrucae (WART) treatment – SWIFT technology

Are you sick of dealing with those pesky warts? Well, PRINE Podiatry is here to inform you of their brand new, effective Swift Technology used to treat and prevent the emergence of warts. Verrucae, also known as plantar warts, is a common foot issue people deal with on a regular basis. It can often be embarrassing and difficult trying to cover up these warts due to their appearance and placement. Most often, patients will get these types of warts on the bottom of their feet or on the balls of their heels. Luckily, you don’t have to be embarrassed any longer!

6 REASONS YOUR FEET SMELL BAD

Foot odor, or bromodosis as it is known in the medical field, is an embarrassing problem and one that patients come to us for at PRINE Health with the best podiatrist on long island. Stinky feet generally have to do with perspiration. Sweat is odorless but when it mixes with bacteria it creates a foul smell. With over 250,000 sweat glands in your feet there is plenty of opportunity for sweat and bacteria to meet. There are a number of reasons why this happens:
Get Your Place

  • Hygiene—if you don’t clean your feet daily or you re-use your socks without laundering them you greatly increase the chance of smelly feet.
  • Hyperhidrosis—with this condition, your feet sweat excessively and the sweat gets trapped in the glands (rather than quickly evaporating) where it has a greater likelihood of mixing with bacteria and causing stinky feet.
  • Hormones—during times of hormonal change, such as puberty or pregnancy, you are more prone to foot odor
  • Lifestyle—believe it or not, stress can cause foot odor as can the use of alcohol or drugs
  • Medication—certain medications are linked to body odor.
  • Bacterial or fungal infection—athlete’s foot and other infections can cause foot odor.

What You Can Do

If foot odor is an ongoing problem, consult one of our board-certified podiatrists, Dr. Alec Hochstein or Dr. Diana Gagliano. If there is a medical reason for your bromodosis, it will be necessary to treat the source of the problem. There are also some steps you can take on your own. Make sure that you wash your feet daily and dry completely. You can try spraying feet and shoes with a foot spray or even a regular underarm deodorant. Wear cotton socks and change them more than once daily if your feet are prone to excessive sweating. You can also try soaking your feet in tea or Epsom salts and water to help dry feet and eliminate bacteria. For more information on how to care for your feet, contact the best podiatrist on long island office. If you have a medical condition that prevents you from getting to our office, ask about a home visit.

Patient Experience

The staff is so friendly and nice, and I never had to wait longer than five minutes to be seen. And of course, Dr. Hochstein was just as I remembered. As corny as it sounds, they really do make you feel like family. Dr. Hochstein is patient, thorough, and you get the feeling that he really cares about you and about his business. It's great walking into a doctor's office, which can often be an uncomfortable feeling, and feel welcomed. More doctors should operate their offices the way this office is run and after being a patient for so long, you can clearly tell they're consistent.

Dr. Sands is amazing. My feet feel better after my visit. He will take his time and explain what treatment options and procedures that can help. What a GREAT Podiatrist!

I would give Dr. Hochstein and the staff a 10 star if I could. I stumbled upon this podiatrist about 4 years ago to deal with a few things including my plantar fasciitis. He is efficient, fast, and has a great personality. I just went again to see him for an ingrown toenail. I was terrified...but in literally 15 minutes - I was walking out of there as if nothing happened. I took off the bandage 24 hours later and it looks as if nothing happened to my toe.

Thank you, for making my experience very pleasant. I highly recommend Dr.Sands. he is such a pleasure. Thank you so much for fixing my toe nail. And yes I was terrified at first. But he made me feel very comfortable. Thank very much. There should be more people like you out there in the world.

Fantastic Doctor, he is terrific. I had taken my 89 year old dad to a different Dr that suggested my dad see a podiatrist. Not only did Dr Sands take my dad right away he was so thoughtful and caring and really treated him with TLC. He does not believe in unnecessary meds or treatments. He was spot on with everything he did and didn't do for my dad. I think this is the greatest podiatrist on Long Island

We have been patients of Dr. Hochstein for many years. He is so kind and patient, and he always knows how to help with any problems we're having. I started seeing Stefanie for sterile pedi during the pandemic and will never stop. She has taught me a lot about foot care, proper footwear, and more. Stefanie's appointments are booked well in advance because she is that good. The office staff is the nicest and most efficient among all of our medical providers.

I have been a patient of Dr. Landy for a number of years and I found him to be very personable, knowledgeable and exceedingly helpful to his patients , I rate him as 5 Stars out of 5 in my books. If you happen to have a problem in your foot any where from your ankle down, don't hesitate to immediately see Dr. Robert J. Landy, DPM, and you will comeback happy and your foot feels great with no pain whatsoever. Take it from me and you will never regret it.
