General Practitioners

Warts
Arthritis
I.) Rheumatoid arthritis and other forms of arthritis, including gout, which usually manifests itself in the big toe joint, can cause heel discomfort in some cases.
Plantar Fasciitis
Both heel pain and heel spurs are frequently associated with an inflammation of the band of fibrous connective tissue (fascia ) running along the bottom ( plantar surface ) of the foot, from the heel to the ball of the foot. The inflammation is called plantar fasciitis. It is common among athletes who run and jump a lot, and it can be quite painful.
Medical Weight Loss
Symptoms of hyperglycemia may include frequent urination, excessive thirst, extreme hunger, unexplained weight loss, tingling or numbness of the feet or hands, blurred vision, fatigue, slow-to-heal wounds and susceptibility to certain infections. People who have any of these symptoms and have not been tested for diabetes are putting themselves at considerable risk and should see a physician without delay.
Primary Care
Do I need a referral to see a podiatrist in Nashville? None of the physicians in the Nashville Foot Group requires a referral from your primary care physician, general practitioner, or family doctor in order to see you.
High Cholesterol
Emergency Care
Wait times and insurance co-payments are often less in your podiatrist’s office than in an emergency room. If in doubt, call your podiatrist to determine where you should go if you injure your foot or ankle.
Diabetic Foot Care
Electrocardiogram
As with anyone facing any surgical procedure, those undergoing foot and ankle surgery require specific tests or examinations before surgery to improve a successful surgical outcome. Prior to surgery, the podiatric physician will review your medical history and medical conditions. Specific diseases, illnesses, allergies, and current medications need to be evaluated. Other tests that help evaluate your health status may be ordered by the podiatric physician, such as blood studies, urinalysis, EKG, X-rays, a blood flow study (to better evaluate the circulatory status of the foot/legs), and a biomechanical examination. A consultation with another medical specialist may be advised by a podiatric physician, depending on your test results or a specific medical condition.

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care

Ultrasound
X-Rays

Orthopedics
If you live in Downtown Nashville, Hermitage, or Smyrna, call Dr. Berkeley Nicholls at 615.321.3668. A preferred provider on most insurance plans, Dr. Nicholls is Board Certified in Foot Surgery and Podiatric Orthopedics by the American Boards of Podiatric Surgery and Medicine, and a member of the American Podiatric Medical Association.
Wound Care
Not all ulcers are infected; however if your podiatric physician diagnoses an infection, a treatment program of antibiotics, wound care, and possibly hospitalization will be necessary.
Ankle Surgery
Bunions
This forces the toe to bend toward the others, causing an often painful lump of bone on the foot. Since this joint carries a lot of the body’s weight while walking, bunions can cause extreme pain if left untreated.
Ingrown Toenails
Ingrown Toenails People that fiddle with pesky ingrown toenails can worsen their condition leading to bacterial and fungal infection.

Corns
Commercial, over-the-counter preparations that remove warts or corns should be avoided because they can burn the skin and cause irreplaceable damage to the foot of a diabetic sufferer.
Ulcer
A diabetic foot ulcer is an open sore or wound that occurs in approximately 15 percent of patients with diabetes, and is commonly located on the bottom of the foot. Of those who develop a foot ulcer, six percent will be hospitalized due to infection or other ulcer-related complication.
Calluses
Never try to cut calluses with a razor blade or any other instrument because the risk of cutting yourself is too high, and such wounds can often lead to more serious ulcers and lacerations.
Fungus
It is very safe and effective, and does not require a lifestyle change or regular blood tests to monitor liver function. Unlike systemic oral medications, laser therapy is targeted directly at the infection. Unlike topical treatments, laser therapy is able to penetrate the nail plate to get to the fungus.
Lesions
It is also possible for a variety of more serious lesions to appear on the foot, including malignant lesions such as carcinomas and melanomas. Although rare, these conditions can sometimes be misidentified as a wart. It is wise to consult a podiatric physician when any suspicious growth or eruption is detected on the skin of the foot in order to ensure a correct diagnosis.

With this in mind, APMA has announced a new campaign for Foot Health Awareness Month called “Play It Safe,” which will reach athletes of all ages to educate them about the importance of foot health in sports, and a podiatrist’s critical role in helping treat and prevent foot and ankle injuries.
Bunions Problems
A common deformity of the foot, a bunion is an enlargement of the bone and tissue around the joint of the big toe. Heredity frequently plays a role in the occurrence of bunions, as it does in other foot conditions. When symptomatic, the area may become red, swollen, and inflamed, making shoe gear and walking uncomfortable and difficult. If conservative care fails to reduce these symptoms, surgical intervention may be warranted. Your podiatric physician will determine the type of surgical procedure best suited for your deformity, based on a variety of information which may include X-rays and gait examination.

Flat Feet
Flat feet- or fallen arches- refers to a condition of the foot in which the arch of the foot collapses while standing (or in some extreme cases, even when no weight is applied to the feet), causing the sole of the foot to become flat.

Hammertoes
When Do You Need A Foot Doctor Near You For Heel Pain, Swollen Joints, and Hammertoes? If you have persistent or very painful heel pain despite changing shoes or getting exercise rest, or as a result of obesity, you may want to contact a podiatrist. If you have a bunion, a swollen joint at the base of the big toe, contact a podiatrist at the first sign of discomfort or pain. If you have a hammertoe, you should seek medical attention from an APMA licensed foot doctor in Nashville at the first indication of pain and discomfort because, if left untreated, hammertoes tend to become rigid, making a nonsurgical treatment less of an option.
Heel Spurs
A common cause of heel pain is the heel spur, a bony growth on the underside of the heel bone. The spur, visible by X-ray, appears as a protrusion that can extend forward as much as half an inch.
Heel Pain
Foot Pain
Ingrown Toenails
If you suspect an infection due to an ingrown toenail, immerse the foot in a warm salt water soak, or a basin of soapy water, then apply an antiseptic and bandage the area.
Foot Injuries
Foot Warts
Self treatment is generally not advisable. Over-the-counter preparations contain acids or chemicals that destroy skin cells, and it takes an expert to destroy abnormal skin cells (warts) without also destroying surrounding healthy tissue.
Foot Orthotics
Foot orthotics fall into three broad categories: those that primarily attempt to change foot function, those that are primarily protective in nature, and those that combine functional control and protection.
Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar Fasciitis This is one of the most common podiatric conditions, and if it's left untreated, this can actually result in weight gain and time missed from work...
Podiatric Deformities
Ulcers form due to a combination of factors, such as lack of feeling in the foot, poor circulation, foot deformities, irritation (such as friction or pressure), and trauma, as well as duration of diabetes.
Podiatric Orthopedics
A preferred provider on most insurance plans, Dr. Nicholls is Board Certified in Foot Surgery and Podiatric Orthopedics by the American Boards of Podiatric Surgery and Medicine, and a member of the American Podiatric Medical Association.
Podiatric Surgery
If the injury is severe enough, you may need podiatric surgery and professional guidance and availability during post-operative recovery.
