Rheumatoid arthritis

odiatrists are medical professionals who specialize in the treatment of conditions that affect the feet and ankles. They can help people with rheumatoid arthritis in several ways:

1. Foot care: People with rheumatoid arthritis are at increased risk of developing foot problems due to the inflammation and joint damage caused by the condition. A podiatrist can help by providing regular foot care, including trimming toenails, removing calluses, and providing orthotic inserts to help improve foot function.

2. Pain management: Podiatrists can help manage foot pain in people with rheumatoid arthritis by prescribing medications, performing foot and ankle injections, and recommending physical therapy.

3. Mobility: Podiatrists can help people with rheumatoid arthritis maintain mobility by providing advice on footwear and assistive devices, such as canes or walkers.

4. Surgery: In severe cases, a podiatrist may recommend surgery to correct foot deformities or to fuse joints to improve mobility and reduce pain.

Overall, Greg and the team from Move with Podiatry can help people with rheumatoid arthritis manage their condition and maintain mobility by providing comprehensive foot and ankle care.
