Foot help in Astorga

[Traveller44]

Just left this clinic. I was a walk (hobble) in and Ms Gonzalez tended to me in 20 minutes . I had expected a much longer wait so this was a pleasant surprise. 2 minutes from the Cathedral.

May I ask what treatment she provided. Thanks.

Mostly blister relief, cleaned up older heel blisters and then cleaned , medicated then applied some " second skin, a thin film and installed some cushioning around both newer ones. Wrapped everything nicely in those hard to reach places. Gave me some supplies to go. 26 euros

Has someone experience for foottreatment in Pamplona? I will arrive there in a few days after walking from Lourdes - Aragones.
And my feet need treatment.

I have a suggestion if you do not receive an answer. Caminoteca store in Pamplona, is run by a many time pilgrim and was a huge help to the lady I was walking with. He trimmed the soles of her shoes to prevent future blisters. I am sure he can assist you in finding the help you need with your feet. Buen Camino

I was also about to suggest Caminoteca in Pamplona. It’s just down from the Catedral, past the Bistrot café on the corner (side note: they have very weird art installation toilets in the Bistrot). I had a long chat with the owner of Caminoteca the other week about my very small blisters, which I didn’t want worsening. He’s a mine of knowledge, a really lovely man, and has everything you might need for every aspect of the Camino.

Thx for your reactions. I'm going to stay in a hotel nearby the cathedral, so it must be easy to find.
