Understanding Toe Nail Ingrowth

Toe nail ingrowth, also known as onychocryptosis, occurs when the side or corner of a toenail grows into the skin, causing discomfort, inflammation, and pain. It is a common problem among individuals and can occur due to various factors such as improper nail trimming, tight footwear, genetic predisposition, or injury.

Symptoms and Complications

Recognizing the symptoms of toe nail ingrowth is essential for timely treatment. Common signs include redness, swelling, tenderness, and pain around the affected area. If left untreated, it can lead to complications such as infection, abscess formation, and restricted mobility.

Expert Toe Nail Ingrowth Treatment at The Foot Practice

At The Foot Practice, our team of highly skilled podiatrists specializes in providing effective toe nail ingrowth treatment. Our goal is to relieve pain, promote healing, and prevent recurrence. To achieve this, we offer a range of treatment options tailored to each individual's needs:

1. Conservative Treatment

In mild cases, conservative treatment approaches are often effective. Our experienced podiatrists will carefully assess your condition and recommend the most suitable treatment options. This may include:

• Proper Nail Trimming: Our experts will teach you how to trim your nails properly, avoiding sharp corners that can cause ingrowth.
• Pain Relief: We provide pain management techniques to alleviate discomfort and reduce inflammation.
• Topical Medications: We may prescribe topical ointments or creams to reduce infection and promote healing.
• Padding and Strapping: Our podiatrists may use special padding and strapping techniques to gently lift the ingrowing nail and relieve pressure.

2. Nail Surgery

In severe or recurrent cases, nail surgery may be recommended for a long-term solution. Our skilled podiatrists perform various types of nail surgeries, including:

• Partial Nail Avulsion: During this procedure, a portion of the affected nail is removed to alleviate pressure and allow proper regrowth.
• Full Nail Avulsion: In extreme cases, complete nail removal may be necessary. Rest assured, our experts will guide you through the recovery process.
• Chemical Matrixectomy: This surgical procedure involves the use of a chemical agent to prevent nail regrowth, effectively addressing recurring ingrowth concerns.
