Are you planning a vacation involving air travel in the coming months? Flying somewhere far away is exciting, but it can tough on your feet, and a podiatric illness or injury can ruin a long-anticipated adventure. Here are some tips from Dr. Eric Kosofsky and Dr. Robert Rutstein to keep you healthy when you fly:

So much of health and wellness begins with what we put into our bodies. Boosting health through diet choices isn’t complicated, and it doesn’t have to involve strange new foods or obsessive attention to detail. With just a few changes, you can increase overall wellness and positively impact your feet.

Granted, some aspects of your foot health are beyond your control. Injury, illness, and infection can strike at any time. The good news is that a board-certified podiatrist is always ready to help you with an expert examination, diagnosis, and treatment.

By now, most men and women in America have gotten the message that “you are what you eat.” We know that, combined with regular exercise, smart diet choices will help reduce the risk of chronic illness including high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.

With years of training and experience, a board-certified podiatrist like Eric Kosofsky, DPM and Robert Rutstein, DPM is a medical specialist. Your podiatrist is the best-qualified doctor to examine your feet, ankles, and lower legs; to diagnose any illnesses or injuries; to provide immediate and ongoing care for this part of your body.
