Ischemic foot is inadequate arterial blood flow from the heart to the foot that can occur from arterial blockages, arterial spasms, and injury to the artery. Since blood flow is restricted to the foot, symptoms include cold feet, purplish or discolored toes, muscle cramping, and pain. Ulcers and gangrene can result from the lack of blood to the area. Treatment for ischemic foot involves exercises that increase blood flow to the feet, such as walking; orthotics and protective shoes can protect the affected skin from damage caused by rubbing or irritation. Medications may be prescribed to improve blood flow (always consult with a doctor before taking any medication).

“Healthy Feet Podiatry has a friendly and caring office staff and Dr. Todd Brennan is GREAT. Due to my insurance, I was unable to use the same Dr. as my husband. As I didn’t like the care he was getting, that was OK. I get fast appointments and “my Doctor is on-time for them”! I […]

“Very rarely do you go to any physician and get immediate relief. I was in extreme pain yesterday and I feel 100% better today. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Bret Brennan and the support staff. I had never been there before and I felt like they were generally happy to see me […]

“Dr Leo was fantastic in helping my daughter who had 2 ingrown toenails. She is a student at FSU and had to get back to Tallahassee on a Monday, by late afternoon, and was in serious pain for the past few months with an unsuccessful surgery up at FSU. The office staff was friendly, fun […]
