What is an Ingrown Toenail?
An ingrown toenail occurs when the edge of a toenail grows into the surrounding skin, causing discomfort, inflammation, and sometimes infection. While it most commonly affects the big toe, any toenail can become ingrown. Left untreated, it can escalate, leading to more severe complications. Below are some signs of an ingrown toenail:
- Pain and tenderness: Especially along the sides of the nail.
- Redness and swelling: The surrounding skin may appear inflamed.
- Infection: Pus, warmth, or increased pain could indicate infection.
- Hardening skin: Over time, the skin may harden around the affected area.
If you’re currently dealing with any of these symptoms, it’s important to seek professional advice as soon as possible.
Our Approach to Treatment
We provide personalised ingrown toenail treatment tailored to your needs. Our process includes:
Initial Assessment: We examine your toenail and assess the severity of the condition.
Non-Surgical Options: For mild cases, we offer conservative treatments such as:
- Professional nail trimming.
- Padding or taping to relieve pressure.
- Advice on footwear and home care.
Surgical Solutions: For severe or recurring cases, we may recommend a minor procedure, such as:
- Partial Nail Avulsion: Removing a portion of the nail.
- Total Nail Avulsion: Removing the entire nail if necessary.
- Use of phenol to prevent regrowth of the problematic portion.
All procedures are carried out with precision and care, ensuring minimal discomfort and optimal results.
