INGROWN TOENAIL
Are you suffering from an ingrown toenail? You can usually self-diagnose this condition by identifying pain, redness, or swelling on a toe – typically the big toe. Ingrown toenails are a condition where the side or corner of a toenail grows into the skin and can be caused by a number of things.
Ingrown toenails have a habit of getting worse the longer they go untreated, so make sure you take care of your toe as soon as possible.
PERMANENT INGROWN TOENAIL SOLUTION
It’s important to make sure this is the correct diagnosis for your pain and that you’re getting the right treatment. If not treated properly, ingrown toenails can reoccur. If you aren’t sure of the severity of your case, make an appointment with one of our doctors.
For those ingrown toenails that require surgery, it is a minor procedure. Your toe will be numbed and the piece of nail digging into your skin will be removed. The doctor will narrow your toenail in order to prevent future recurrences. In extreme cases, the entire toenail may be removed if needed. This simple procedure is a great way to avoid ever having problems from ingrown toenails again!
