Tired of Ongoing Foot Pain or Nail Infections? Laser Treatment Might Be the Answer

Tired of Ongoing Foot Pain or Nail Infections? Laser Treatment Might Be the Answer

July 09, 20252 min read

If you’ve been struggling with verrucas that just won’t go away, fungal nails that keep coming back, or pain in your knees, ankles, or heels — we’ve got good news.

We now offer laser therapy right here at The Foot & Lower Limb Clinic in Colne and Brighouse. It's a safe, non-invasive treatment that can help with a range of foot and leg problems, especially the ones that don’t respond well to creams, tablets, or rest alone.

Let’s break it down so you can see if it’s right for you.

What Is Laser Therapy?

Laser therapy uses targeted light energy to:

  • Kill off fungal infections

  • Destroy verruca-causing viruses

  • Reduce pain and swelling in injured muscles and joints

It works deep under the skin without damaging the surface. The treatment encourages healing by boosting blood flow and calming inflammation. Think of it like helping your body do its repair work — but faster and more effectively.

What Can Laser Therapy Treat?

We’re using it in clinic to treat:

  • Stubborn verrucas that haven’t cleared with over-the-counter treatments

  • Fungal nail infections (even thickened or discoloured nails)

  • Sports injuries like sprained ankles, pulled muscles, or tendon pain

  • Knee pain, including conditions like runner’s knee or general inflammation

  • Heel pain (like plantar fasciitis or Achilles issues)

If you’ve tried other treatments with little success — laser might be the missing piece.

What Happens During Treatment?

Don’t worry — laser therapy is quick and doesn’t require downtime. Here’s what to expect:

  • We’ll talk you through the process and check if laser is suitable for you

  • During the session, we guide the laser over the treatment area — no needles or cuts involved

  • You may feel warmth, but it’s not painful

  • Most sessions take around 15–30 minutes, depending on the condition

  • You can go straight back to your normal day afterward

Who Is It For?

Laser therapy is suitable for most adults and even older children, depending on the condition. It’s especially helpful if:

  • You’ve had a fungal nail or verruca for over 6 months

  • You want to avoid oral medications or surgery

  • You’re recovering from a foot, ankle, or leg injury

  • You’ve got a busy lifestyle and want a gentle, no-fuss treatment option

We’ll always assess your needs first to make sure it’s the right fit for you.
