There is nothing glamorous about feet, but that's ok, their designed for function not for glamour. Feet provide us with stability to stand upright, flexibility so we can walk and strength so we can run and jump. When pain starts to develop these basic human functions we had previously taken for granted start to become a chore.

The Achilles tendon is the largest tendon in the human body and can withstand tensile forces of 1,000 pounds or more. It is also one of the most frequently injured tendons, because of the heavy workload the Achilles is put through as part of most physical activity. The key to treating Achilles injury is to seek treatment as soon as possible, exercising through pain will only complicate and lengthen the recovery process.
Arthritis is an inflammation and swelling of the cartilage and lining of the joints, generally accompanied by an increase in the fluid in the joints. Arthritis is a disabling and occasionally crippling disease common in people over 50. Some forms of arthritis like Rheumatoid appear to be hereditary; the most common form Osteo arthritis is simply caused by 'wear and tear'.
Fungal nails refer to a number of fungi that can grow in and on the nail. The fungi are similar to that of Athletes Foot, however, they are significantly harder to treat due to their position under and in the nail. Fungal nail infections present as a white, yellow or brown discoloration followed by an eventual thickening and crumbling of the nail (nail rot).
