Helping 'Feet'



At Community Foot Care we believe in giving back. To help the community we are having a Toys for Tots drive and several Canned Food drives. These events will take place during the whole month of November in ALL of our offices.

The Toys for Tots bins are in all the offices; however Toys for Tots only accepts new toys that are still in the package or have the tags still on them. As we have no other use for the toys we ask that all parties interested adhere to the Marine Toys for Tots regulations.

Food Pantry bins will also be placed in all locations to ensure all our patients are able to participate. Local food pantries are in need of canned foods and all other non-perishable food products, such as macaroni & cheese, cereal, peanut butter, and bottled juices.

At Community Foot Care we believe that helping the community is a way to give back for all the support we have received through out the years. Please help us in our efforts to help in any way possible. For more information please call our office at 937-426-9500 or 937-322-7607.

Turf Toe: A Tough Injury to Overcome

With the fall weather comes football season – and unfortunately, with football season comes injury.

Turf toe isn’t a simple injury that pulls a player out of a game or a dancer out of a single performance. It can leave athletes sidelined for weeks in extreme pain. The good ...

ICE!?! Be safe on the ice..

It's a winter wonderland outside and although it is beautiful, it can be dangerous when ice is present. Many times, people fall on the ice and did not even know it was there. Falling can result in sprain, strains and more seriously broken bones. Here are a few tips to avoid injury from falling this winter: *Wear comfortable shoes with a rubber or non-skid sole. Although "fancy" shoes look nice, it is important to wear a shoe that gives you traction and keeps you steady on your feet. *Pay attention to your surroundings. When walking outside this winter, pay attention to uneven ground and obstacles that may get in your way. *Keep areas outside of your house well lit. Use outdoor lights to improve your vision while getting and out of your car or home, especially if steps are present. *Slow down! Take your time when walking in winter weather.

Tips on Orthotics

If you have orthotics or are considering purchasing them, you may want to consider the following tips to ensure that you are getting the most for your money and doing the best thing for your feet. First, keep in mind that orthotics are not just for wearing with one particular type of shoe – they can be worn with athletic shoes, dress shoes, work boots, snow shoes – pretty much all types of shoes that have a back to them and provide some support at the base of the shoe.   When going shoe shopping, be sure to bring your orthotics with you and wear them when trying on new shoes.
