Athlete’s Foot is a common fungal infection that affects the skin on the feet, typically starting between the toes. It is characterized by itching, burning, and cracked or peeling skin.

Ingrown toenails
For ingrown toenails, it’s essential to address any infection before attempting removal to ensure proper healing and avoid complications.

Once the infection is under control I can provide safe, professional care to relieve discomfort and prevent future issues.
