At Pasco-Hernando Foot & Ankle, we recognize International Podiatry Day in October. We think it’s an excellent opportunity to let our patients know that we can help improve their health in ways they may not be aware of.

At Pasco Hernando Foot & Ankle we know that foot health care needs can change as the years go by. Senior feet have some unique needs. Fat pads are naturally thinner, and joints may start to show signs of wear and tear. In addition, your risk for many conditions increases as you age.

Each September, we at Pasco-Hernando Foot & Ankle recognize Falls Prevention Awareness Day. Statistics show that 1 in 4 Americans 65 and older will fall this year. Falls are the primary cause of both fatal and non-fatal injuries to seniors.
