TORONTO FOOT SPECIALISTS DISCUSSES ALTERNATIVES TO SUTURES

Medical Doctors have been using special glues as an alternative to sutures for over 50 years.  The ones in use now are very similiar to superglue without the toxic and tissue irritating factors. The advantage of these glues is that they form an instant strong closure of the wound and then are slowly resorbed into the body with no need to have the sutures removed at a later date by the doctor and usually with less scarring. Podiatrists, Chiropodists and Foot doctors are increasingly making use of this technology.  Although not new, the new glues are much superior over the initial ones.

At Academy Foot and Orthotic Clinics we believe in conservative care and avoid the use of medications and surgeries whenever possible, allowing the body to heal itself naturally whenever possible.  Our foot clinic would never ever consider cosmetic surgeries as most respected medical specialists consider this procedure to be bordering on the unethical.  If you or a loved one would like honest, competent advice or foot care, please do not hesitate to contact us at 416-465-8737.
