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!

4 Ways To Alleviate A Children's Foot Problem

If there’s one thing all parents can agree on, it’s that the only thing worse than enduring painful heel or ankle pain themselves is seeing their own child have to endure similar foot pain. If you are the parent of an athlete or just a child who is generally very active, it is quite likely that at some point in their childhood, they’ll end up with some sort of children’s foot problem, whether that is a twisted ankle, fractured heel, or something else. If you are currently dealing with a children’s foot problem, here are a few ways that you can help your child soothe and alleviate that pain:

1) A COMPRESSION SLEEVE:

So long as your child’s ankle or heel pain isn’t so bad that they can’t even walk on their foot, consider dressing the foot in a compression sleeve. By wearing this during the day when they are walking, it will reduce swelling, inflammation, and irritation, and make it easier for them to walk correctly with less pain. Even though a compression sleeve could be a great solution, it is still important to ensure that your child properly rests their foot whenever possible so that the recovery process can be expedited and they don’t cause the foot to experience further injury.

2) AN EPSOM SALT SOAK:

One way to reduce the swelling in a children’s foot problem is to submerge the foot in a warm Epsom salt bath. Get a tub and combine Epsom salt with warm water. Allow your child to soak their injured foot in the salt water for approximately 20 minutes. By doing this, not only will the experience lessen swelling in their foot, it will also soothe the injured area and alleviate some of the pain. You can do this a couple times a day until the problem seems to subside. Of course, if your child is suffering from a more serious ankle or heel injury or the salt water doesn’t seem to be helping, you should take your child to PRINE Health, The Best Podiatrist in nassau county to receive proper treatment.

3) GENTLE STRETCHES AND EXERCISES:

Whether your child is suffering from minor pain due to overuse of their foot or they are recovering from an ankle or heel surgery, gentle stretches and light exercises make the recovery process go by even faster. So long as you have gotten the green light from the doctor, try a few stretches and exercises at home. If you don’t feel comfortable letting your child do the exercises on their own or if their recovery demands more serious treatment, ask your doctor about the possibility of working with a physical therapist. This way, you can ensure your child is getting the treatment they need without damaging their foot with incorrect exercises.

4) HOT AND COLD THERAPY:

Hot therapy and cold therapy have both been tried-and-true remedies for decades, so they are definitely worth trying in order to help your child deal with their children’s foot problem. If you have access to a heating pad, instruct your child to elevate and rest their foot and compress the heating pad to the affected area. In addition to heat therapy, allow your child to ice the injured area for 15-20 minutes at a time before removing the ice for a few minutes and repeating the process. Both of these methods will soothe the area, alleviate pain, and reduce swelling.

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.

Gand E.

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.

Yani R.

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.

Sofia L.

Came for the feet but stayed for the love. Dr Hochstein is an amazing podiatrist. And nice convenient office

Harry B.

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

Ellen L.

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.

Andrea K.

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.
