A US Podiatrist has launched a free online podiatry website for people suffering with foot disorders.

The site features an educational library which will give patients greater access to information about conditions and possible treatment options. It contains a full list of potential foot problems and a section advising people of when it is the best time to seek treatment.

In addition to treatment, there is also a section dedicated to preventative measures that patients can take to avoid bunions and other foot problems. The library details different exercises that can help prevent foot problems, and contains advice that helps patients to select the right footwear.

Dr Jeffrey Kauffman who launched the site said “We are very excited to be able to offer this service to our patients. I believe that the more educated a patient is, the better chance they have to maintain a healthy lifestyle and take proper care of their feet and ankles.”

The site can be viewed here.
