It's Hard For Him To Care For His Feet

Subscribe to my channel: bit.ly/2N2a2R0
When you're unable to reach your feet to care for heel fissures, calluses, and dry skin, there are a few alternative methods you can try:
Use a Long-Handled Tool: Consider using a long-handled pumice stone or foot file to exfoliate calluses and dry skin. These tools are designed to help you reach your feet more easily.
Moisturizing Socks: Apply a moisturizing cream or ointment to your feet and then wear moisturizing socks. These socks are designed to keep the moisturizer in contact with your skin, helping to soften dry skin and calluses.
Assistance from a Caregiver: If possible, seek assistance from a caregiver or family member who can help with foot care. They can gently exfoliate calluses and apply moisturizer on your behalf.
Professional Foot Care: Consider visiting a podiatrist or foot care professional who can provide treatments and advice for foot care.
Remember to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice based on your specific needs.

It's a blessing to have a doctor like this who really cares for people suffering with these types of issues.

[@MarioRossi-sh4uk]

I guess he asks a fee for what he's doing. Why is he a blessing ? The toilet cleaning maid isn't a blessing ?

​​@@MarioRossi-sh4uk Please refrain from making negative comments. Of course this doctor charges a fee for his services. He went to college to learn this skill, and he deserves to get paid for his services!!

[@guardianangel9517]

I'll tell you why it's a blessing that he collects a fee anyway. Because there are many doctors who collect a fee and they don't treat their patients like they're worth the spit on the bottom of their shoe. This man treats his patients like they're worthy human beings and that alone is a blessing and he does a good job. It's called humanity!

[@texaswoc3461]

I am a certified foot care nurse and nurse practitioner. I can appreciate the labor intensity of this kind of treatment! Just from the background sounds it sounds like this gentleman is not in good health. What a difference it makes in someone’s life to have their feet feeling good! Well done Doc.

@@SorakaOTP462 because he obviously has a heart with compassion and humbly helps ppl in situations who need that level of care. I hope you keep that same energy when it comes to your loved ones or if you ever find yourself in a position needing someone with compassion to care for you.

[@donnafox2069]

The noises this man was making sound like the soundtrack from a “sexual encounter”. I don’t know how the doctor listened to that. I would have asked the patient to tone it down as the heavy breathing and noises were really disturbing and uncomfortable to listen to. I’ll never understand why people let things get to a point like this. It’s not that hard to sit down and lift one leg and put your foot on the knee of your other leg and take care of your feet. People can do this weekly. I don’t know how this doctor deals with these people. He’s a better person than I am. His cases are truly disgusting 🤢

[@terrymorris6112]

​@@donnafox2069 He is not as disgusting as your comment 😢 What is wrong with you people where is your compassion?? This man is not healthy and from the looks of his feet ....He probably doesn't have anyone to care for him😢

Because of videos like this, I scrub my feet in the shower to get that skin buildup under control. Still got all my toes!

Yes! But just soaking feet will let skin cells shed. Besides, soaking feet feels so good.

[@nreynolds75243]

Yes, I use a pumice stone while in the show to keep my feet smooth. Then I put Vaseline on my feet with socks at night.

Hi everyone. 6 months ago I ruptured 3 lumbar discs. At its worst, I could not reach my feet without excruciating pain. I was actually nervous about potential problems so I always made sure to keep my feet cared for.

Wishing everyone a blessed and happy new year. ♥️

After each bath, rub your dry bath towel between your toes and under your feet. You can actually see the dead skin cells rolling off. I grab a pumice stone and get busy every night after bathing to keep my feet smooth, then greased them down with Ghanaian organic shea butter, then put on cotton socks. Very satisfying video Doc per usual. 🖤

Hi from across the pond x You are such a kind and wonderful doctor, this poor patient has really hard calluses along with fissures which are really thick. He is so fortunate to have you as his foot doctor. I wonder how long this poor man has had this build up, he must have been so uncomfortable. You are very thorough in their care, and along with this he seems to have some breathing difficulties. I love the way you explain the treatment that you have done during this appointment, but you have also explained what he needs to do at home. To be ready for his next appointment with you.

Dr. Jefferson, I wish all podiatrists were 1/2 as committed as you. I have lymphedema and I got a streptococcus infection on both of my legs. My feet & legs were so swollen and hurt/itched/burned 24/7. Of course, my Dr. gave me the wrong antibiotic (twice!) and then sent me to the podiatrist for my feet. They didn't even do an ankle-brachial index test & would not even cut my toe nails let alone put cream on my feet or suggest a brand of cream to me. Then they sent me to wound care for my legs and they just wrapped them and sent me home. It was only at the beginning of the 3rd (yes, third!) YEAR that a temp Dr. finally noticed that I was not given the correct antibiotic for the streptococcus. My legs are finally healing but I still can't find anyone to clip my toe nails (all the salons turn me away because of how my legs look). 🙁 Thank you for being so dedicated and kind to your patients. I've learned so much from your videos. I hope you have a happy & prosperous New Year.
