Taking care of your health starts with simple habits

A quick patient guide to stay on track with your treatment and well-being:

1: histamine blockers (benadryl, zyrtec, ect) are extremely useful and usually fix it or lessen it for a couple hours.

2: anti itch creams/medications, doesn't work as well as histamine blockers but it definitely makes the itching tolerable for a while.

3: prescription medicine for it, I've yet to try it personally but I hope it works better than regular histamine blockers:v

4: ice packs or cold compresses, the numbing from the cold removes the itching entirely while numb, very useful but hard to do things with.

5: any other anti itch treatments, I personally haven't tried any(because of my other conditions) but I assume it could be very helpful depending on the reason for the itch attack

Both podiatrists and foot surgeons focus on your feet, but their roles aren’t always the same. A podiatrist handles common issues—like ingrown toenails, skin conditions, and routine foot care. A foot surgeon (often a podiatrist with surgical training or an orthopedic foot & ankle specialist) steps in when you need surgical intervention or complex treatment.

If you’re dealing with bunions, hammertoes, chronic heel pain, or a severe injury, a foot surgeon may be your best bet. They can correct the problem at its root, often preventing long-term issues.
