Callus Treatment

Calluses, thickened areas of skin that form due to pressure or friction, are common foot issues that can cause discomfort. At Lakewood Foot and Ankle Specialists in Dallas, Texas, we offer effective, personalized callus treatment under the expertise of Dr. Patrick Burge.

Understanding Calluses

Calluses typically form on weight-bearing areas of the foot, especially if there’s excessive pressure or friction. They may lead to discomfort while walking or wearing shoes.

Dr. Patrick Burge: Leading Podiatric Care in Dallas

A highly skilled podiatrist with a deep commitment to personalized care, Dr. Patrick Burge leads the team at Lakewood Foot and Ankle Specialists. His expertise in foot and ankle health and passion for patient education provide exceptional care to those suffering from calluses.

Our Protocol for Callus Treatment

Our comprehensive approach to callus treatment involves:

Diagnosis: We use visual examination and a review of your symptoms and lifestyle factors to diagnose calluses.
Treatment: Treatment can include professional trimming of the callus, custom orthotic devices to redistribute pressure, and advice on appropriate footwear.
Follow-up: Regular follow-ups allow us to monitor your condition and modify treatment as necessary.

Home Care Tips for Calluses

Proper foot care at home can help prevent and manage calluses:

Wear Properly Fitting Shoes: Shoes that are too tight or too loose can cause friction, leading to calluses.
Use Protective Padding: Non-medicated callus pads can help protect areas prone to callus formation.
Keep Feet Moisturized: Regular use of a moisturizer can help soften calluses and improve foot health.

When it comes to callus treatment, trust Lakewood Foot and Ankle Specialists, the best in the Dallas area. Under the experienced guidance of Dr. Patrick Burge, you’ll receive top-tier care, resulting in relief from discomfort and improved foot health.

Wish I would have seen him sooner. He took care of my plantar fsciitis! Thank you Lakewood Foot!

Margo Dickinson

After an orthopedic doctor told me there was no treatment for the fibroma on my foot, I consulted with Dr. Burge who prescribed an ointment that softened the scar tissue. Along with the walking and Pilates exercise that I do routinely, I consider my foot healed! It is much more limber! Thank you so much!

I love Dr. McClurkin and Dr. Burge! Everyone is so helpful and they really know what they're doing. I will definitely see them again!

I have plantar fasciitis in both feet and suffered with pain on and off for many years. After trying another round of steroids with little improvement (this time the left foot was the culprit of my pain), Dr. Burge suggested I try their Lunula Laser. I must say I was skeptical at something for which I didn't see or feel anything during treatment. After completing the 6th round I realized I was not feeling the stabbing pain in my heel, that I had used my water socks and been at the pool with no pain afterwards, and I had worn my dressy sandals all weekend long and not complained of pain in my left foot at all! Now, that was a huge success for me! My right foot is acting up a bit now. I know what to do this time. No more steroids! It will be Lunula Laser for me!

I was referred from a friend who had dr Burge help with his diabetic foot ulcer. My son came in for an ingrown toenail and we could not have been happier with the experience. The staff was fantastic, super friendly and very helpful. Dr burge is a younger guy related well to my teenage son and was very clear in his explanation of what was going on and how the procedure would progress.We would highly recommend him and his office as a great place to go.

UNFORTUNATELY broke my toe multiple times in the same year. FORTUNATELY I found Dr Burge. One of the kindest doctors I've ever met and such an efficient office. I never had to wait more than 5-10 minutes to be seen. I think my toe kept breaking because it liked him that much!

Alexander Heckmann

I can’t say enough about dr burge. His bedside manner is something I crave in every interaction I have. My foot could scare a grown man, and he made me feel like I could be a foot model. His attention to detail and gentle touch will never be forgotten.
