As the weather warms up in Georgia, more people are getting active, hitting the trails, and swapping out their winter boots for sandals. However, increased activity and seasonal changes can bring new foot health challenges. Podiatrists Ryan and Shaynah Goldfine are here to keep your feet healthy and pain-free this spring. Here are some key foot concerns to watch for and how we can help:

  1. Spring Sports & Foot Injuries

With baseball, soccer, and track season in full swing, we see an uptick in foot injuries like stress fractures, ankle sprains, and plantar fasciitis. Custom orthotics and proper footwear can help prevent these issues. If you’re experiencing foot pain, schedule an appointment with Dr. Goldfine for expert care.

  1. Sandal Season: Foot Care Tips

As people transition to open-toed shoes, dry, cracked heels and toenail issues become more noticeable. Keep your feet moisturized and avoid walking barefoot on hard surfaces. If you struggle with ingrown toenails, consider Onyfix—a painless, non-invasive treatment we offer at Goldfine Podiatry.

 

  1. Allergies & Foot Swelling

Georgia’s high pollen counts don’t just cause sneezing—they can also contribute to inflammation and swelling in the feet. If you notice persistent swelling or discomfort, it may indicate circulation issues that need professional attention.

  1. Hiking & Walking Trails: Foot Health Essentials

Spring is the perfect time to explore local trails like Kennesaw Mountain and the Chattahoochee River paths. Make sure to wear supportive shoes, change socks frequently, and address any foot pain early to avoid long-term issues. If you develop blisters, heel pain, or arch discomfort, we’re here to help.

Book an appointment with Drs. Goldfine, whether you're gearing up for spring sports, prepping for sandal season, or tackling a new hiking trail, Podiatrists Drs. Goldfine are here to support your foot health. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Shaynah Goldfine and Ryan Goldfine at our Marietta/Kennesaw location today!
