Pain under or around the heel can be worst in the morning. Dr Azarian is an experienced Perth Podiatrist who treats heel pain conservatively and surgically in severe chronic cases.
Ingrown toenail
Ingrown toenails are one of the most common (and painful) foot problems. The sharp edge of your nail digs into your skin, causing pain and infection. We can operate to fix this issue.
Orthotics
Custom orthotics can play a big part in the treatment of many foot problems. If made correctly, custom orthotics are one of the best investments you can make for your health.
Hammer Toe / Claw toe
Hammer/claw toes are bent and appear retracted. They can cause embarrassment, problems with footwear, skin irritation, pain, nail deformity, corns and calluses.

Morton’s neuroma is the most common nerve entrapment in the foot; leading to numbness and shooting pain under the ball of the foot and between the toes.
