A chiropodist is a healthcare professional who specializes in diagnosing and treating conditions related to the feet and lower limbs. They provide care for various issues, including foot pain, ingrown toenails, and skin conditions. Chiropodists often work with patients of all ages, helping them maintain foot health and mobility. In some regions, chiropodists may also be known as podiatrists, although the terms can have different meanings depending on the country. They may use various treatments, such as orthotics, foot exercises, and minor surgical procedures, to address foot-related problems and improve overall well-being.
