The importance of the podiatrist and a healthy foot
Foot health is often underestimated, but it plays a crucial role in our overall well-being. Contacting an expert podiatrist, such as Dr. Alessandra Fortunato, can prevent and treat a wide range of pathologies which, if neglected, can lead to more serious problems.
A healthy foot contributes to correct posture, reduces the risk of falls and injuries, and improves quality of life. The podiatrist can identify and correct deformities, treat infections, relieve pain and provide personalized advice to keep your feet in optimal condition. Ignoring your foot health can not only cause discomfort and pain, but can also negatively affect your daily activities and overall well-being.
For this reason, it is essential not to neglect foot care and regularly consult a specialist for appropriate checks and treatments.
Dr. Fortunato is a first-rate specialist in the foot health sector, and operates in full compliance with current regulations and professional ethics. The Doctor, in addition to the classic academic and healthcare training, continually aims to update through participation in conferences and conventions.
Pediatric foot
The podiatrist for the little ones
During developmental age, feet change rapidly from a structural point of view, which is why the infant foot is considered different from that of adults.
From an initial normal situation in which all newborns have flat feet, we move on to a progressive raising of the plantar arch, until the situation stabilizes in the shape of the adult foot.
Very often parents worry about the strange postures adopted by children while walking: thanks to the podiatrist they will always have a specialist at their side who will be able to analyze the situation and monitor the correct development of the little ones' feet and, if necessary, intervene to correct any defects.
Diabetic foot
The diabetic foot: prevention and treatment
Diabetes causes circulation problems that can have harmful consequences on the feet, making it more difficult to heal from infections, bruises and wounds.
Some time ago this could even lead to amputation to avoid the spread of gangrene.

Nowadays, however, centers such as the Fortunato Podology Studio offer particular therapies and treatments which, by improving circulation in the extremities of the limbs, help to avoid the most extreme consequences of the diabetic foot and keep it functional and healthy.
