      Campbelltown City Podiatry first began in the 1980s. A newly graduated Geoff Crichton set up practice in Campbelltown, Camden and Ingleburn. Mr Crichton juggled three public hospital clinics, three private clinics and soon realised that it would be much simpler to focus on one practice location. Campbelltown City Podiatry prides itself in providing Podiatry in a modern, professional and caring environment.

      We like the reputation that over 25 years of Podiatry service brings to our clinic, and we are not afraid to admit to our patients if we can't help them. Our profession has given us years of clinical practice and knowledge to know when Podiatry draws the line and cannot assist in a certain condition. If we cannot help, we will simply guide/refer you to the right professional that can! Sometimes that is a surgeon, or a Physiotherapist or even your local GP.

      What are bunions?

      A bunion is a foot deformity which is typically characterised by a deviation of the bones around the big toe joint. As a result, there is a large bony lump on the inside of the foot and the toe is pointed across towards the smaller toes. Painful bunions seem to be more of a common problem in women which is attributed to ill-fitting footwear.


      What causes callouses?

      Callous (Hyperkeratosis) simply means thickening of the skin. This thickening occurs as a natural defence mechanism that strengthens the skin in areas of friction or excessive pressure. Deformities in the feet and improper footwear are typical causes of foot callouses.


      What is a callous?

      Callouses on the foot are annoying and in some cases a very painful condition whereby a part of the foot has formed a thickened area of skin. Typically this occurs in an area of excess pressure.


      What is a corn?

      Corns on the foot are annoying and sometimes painful. They appear in as a circular shape and similar to that of a callous, forms a thickened area of skin, localised to a part of the foot.


      What causes a corn?

      Corns typically come from excessive pressure on the foot. It causes thickening to occur as a result of the body's natural defence mechanism that strengthens the skin in areas of friction or excessive pressure. Deformities in the feet and improper footwear are typical causes of foot callouses.


      Can a Podiatrist help remove the ingrown portion of the nail?

      Ingrown toenails are common and unpleasant with many people commonly suffering from this condition. Our treatment options vary and it can depend on the severity, chronic state and infection level. It's important to seek treatment sooner rather than later, and if there is an infection it can be potentially serious. Don't be embarrassed, we are here to help!


      What causes heel pain?

      Often heel pain comes from simply being on our feet. Whilst repeated activity can aggravate your heel pain it is caused by a structure called plantar fascia becoming overly stressed which causes irritation to the attachment point to the heel bone. So inflammation & pain can develop around the heel area. Sometimes a painful outgrowth of bone called a heel spur, forms where the plantar fascia joins the heel bone. It may not be the primary source of pain it is likely to be a contributing factor.


      What causes bunions?

      There are many factors that can contribute to bunions. Most commonly these factors can include genetic factors, poor foot mechanics, narrow or tight footwear, wearing high heels and trauma to the toe.
