Hāpai ko kākou mau wāwae i ke kaumaha o ko kākou kino holoʻokoʻa a hāpai iā kākou a puni i ka lā a pau, ʻeā? Akā, ʻaʻole pinepine kākou e mālama nui i ko kākou mau wāwae. No laila, ke loaʻa iā kākou kahi pilikia a ʻeha paha i ko kākou mau wāwae, aia nā manawa ʻaʻole ʻoe ʻike i ka mea e haʻi aku ai a i ʻole ke kauka e hele ai. I kēia lā, ke kamaʻilio nei mākou e pili ana i kahi loea e hiki ke kōkua iā kākou i ia mau manawa.
ʻO wai kēia Kauka Podiatrist? I ka pōkole...
I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, he kauka podiatrist i loea i nā pilikia a me nā maʻi o kou mau wāwae, nā kuʻekuʻe wāwae, a me ka wāwae haʻahaʻa, mai ka wāwae a i ke kuli.
E like me ke kauka puʻuwai, ke kauka ʻili, a me ke kauka loea i ke olakino o ko mākou mau wāwae a me nā wāwae, aia nā kauka i hoʻomaʻamaʻa kūikawā ʻia e mālama iā lākou. ʻO lākou ka poʻe a mākou e kapa nei he Podiatrists. Hoʻōla lākou i nā ʻeha i hana ʻia e nā ulia a me nā hopena o nā maʻi lōʻihi e like me ka maʻi diabetes ma nā wāwae.
He mau kauka maoli anei lākou?
ʻAe, ʻoiaʻiʻo nō. Akā, aia kahi ʻokoʻa iki. ʻAʻole lākou e hele i ke kula lapaʻau kuʻuna. Aia nā kula lapaʻau kūikawā i hoʻolaʻa ʻia no ka lāʻau podiatric. ʻO ia ke kumu i loaʻa ai iā lākou ke kēkelē DPM (Kauka o ka Lapaʻau Podiatric) ma hope o ko lākou inoa ma kahi o MD (Kauka Lapaʻau).
Akā, mai hopohopo e pili ana i ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o kēia mau kekelē ʻelua. He kauka mākaukau piha ke kauka wāwae.
Loaʻa iā lākou ka mana piha a me ke aʻo ʻana e hana i ke ʻoki kino, hoʻonohonoho i nā iwi haʻihaʻi, kuhikuhi i nā lāʻau lapaʻau, a paipai i nā mea e like me nā X-ray a i ʻole nā hoʻokolohua lab. I ka manawa pinepine, inā pili ka pilikia wāwae i kekahi kūlana ʻē aʻe, e hana pū lākou me nā loea ʻē aʻe e mālama iā ʻoe ma ke ʻano he hui.
He aha nā maʻi maʻamau a ke kauka wāwae e mālama ai?
Hiki i ke kauka wāwae ke kōkua i nā kānaka o nā makahiki āpau me nā ʻano pilikia wāwae like ʻole. E nānā kākou i nā kūlana nui. I mea e maʻalahi ai ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana i kēia ʻike, e hōʻike wau iā ia ma kahi papa e like me kēia.
| Kūlana/pilikia olakino | He wehewehe maʻalahi |
|---|---|
| Nā haki a me nā ʻūmiʻi | Nā ʻeha maʻamau i ka wāwae a i ʻole ka kuʻekuʻe wāwae. Hoʻokomo pū kēia i ka mālama ʻana i nā ʻeha i nā mea pāʻani a me ke aʻo ʻana iā lākou pehea e pale aku ai iā lākou. |
| Nā Bunions a me nā Hammertoes | He mau pilikia kēia me nā iwi o nā wāwae. ʻO Bunion ka pehu ʻana, ka huki ʻana, a me ke kūlou ʻana o ka hui manamana wāwae nui i nā manamana wāwae ʻē aʻe. ʻO Hammertoe kahi kūlana kahi e kūlou pono ʻole ai ka manamana wāwae a lilo ia e like me ka makau. |
| Nā maʻi kui | Nā mea e like me nā maʻi kuku fungal a me nā manamana wāwae i ulu. |

Hiki i kēia ke paʻakikī ke ʻike i ka wā e loaʻa ai nā ʻeha a lohi ka ho'ōla ʻana. He mea nui ke kōkua o ke kauka wāwae e pale aku i nā ʻoki wāwae maʻi diabetes. |
| ʻO ka ʻāʻī o ke kino | Pehu ʻana o nā hono, ʻeha, a me ke komo ʻana a me ka haehae ʻana. He 33 mau hono ko mākou i hoʻokahi wāwae. Pono paha kēia i ka hoʻōla kino, ka lāʻau lapaʻau, nā kāmaʻa kūikawā, a i ʻole ke ʻoki kino. |
| ʻEha kuʻekuʻe wāwae | Hiki ke hana ʻia e nā kūlana e like me ka plantar fasciitis a i ʻole kahi waihona calcium i loko o ka iwi kuʻekuʻe wāwae (heel spur). |
| ʻO ka Neuroma o Morton | ʻO ke ʻano o ka ʻeha a me ka mumū i hoʻokumu ʻia e ke kaomi ʻana o ke aʻalolo ma waena o nā manamana wāwae ʻekolu a me ʻehā. ʻOi aku ka maʻamau i ka poʻe e komo ana i nā kāmaʻa paʻa a i ʻole ka poʻe e holo ana. |
I ka manawa hea ʻoe e ʻike ai i kahi podiatrist?
Ma keʻano laulā, makemake paha ʻoe e noʻonoʻo e ʻike i kahi podiatrist inā loaʻa iā ʻoe nā hōʻailona penei:
- ʻEha mau ka wāwae: Inā ʻeha kou mau wāwae ʻaʻole wale i ka wā e hele ai a holo paha, akā, i ke kū wale ʻana.
- Nā loli i nā kui: Inā ua mānoanoa, melemele a ʻeleʻele paha nā kui, a haki maʻalahi.
- Nā pilikia ʻili: Inā e ʻili ana ka ʻili ma nā kapuwaʻi o kou mau wāwae, e māwae ana, a i ʻole he mau ʻoki e ho'ōla ʻole ʻia (e noʻonoʻo he pilikia kēia , ʻoiai inā he maʻi diabetes kou).
- Nā ulu hou: Inā ulu nā warts a i ʻole nā ulu ʻē aʻe ma nā wāwae.
- Paʻakikī ke hele wāwae: Inā kaumaha kou wāwae ma kekahi ʻaoʻao i ka wā e hele ana.
He aha kāu e manaʻo ai ke ʻike ʻoe i ke kauka?
Ke hele ʻoe e ʻike i ke kauka wāwae, ua like ia me ke ʻike ʻana i nā kauka ʻē aʻe.
ʻO ka mea mua, e nīnau ʻo ia e pili ana i kāu mōʻaukala olakino piha . E nīnau ʻo ia e pili ana i nā lāʻau lapaʻau āu e lawe ai, nā ʻoki kino āu i loaʻa ai, a me nā kūlana olakino ʻē aʻe āu e loaʻa ai. A laila, e nānā ʻo ia i kou kūlana, kou hele ʻana, a me ke ʻano o ka neʻe ʻana o kou mau wāwae. Hiki iā ia ke nānā e ʻike inā kūpono kou mau kāmaʻa.
Hiki ke hana koke ʻia kekahi mau lāʻau lapaʻau. No ka laʻana, hiki iā lākou ke hāʻawi iā ʻoe i kahi inikini no ka ʻeha, ʻokiʻoki i kahi kui, wehe i kahi mea e like me ka kulina, a mālama paha i kahi wart (cryotherapy - me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka naikokene wai). I kekahi manawa hiki iā lākou ke paipai i nā kāmaʻa kūikawā a i ʻole nā orthotics nāu.
