Understanding Ingrown Toenails

Podiatry focuses on diagnosing and treating conditions related to the foot and ankle, including ingrown toenails. An ingrown toenail occurs when the edge of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, leading to pain, redness, swelling, and even infection. It can be caused by improper nail trimming, tight-fitting shoes, repeated trauma to the toe, or genetic predisposition.

Expert Podiatric Care at The Foot Practice

At The Foot Practice, our podiatrists are trained to provide comprehensive care for ingrown toenails. We begin with a thorough examination to assess the severity of the condition and determine the most appropriate treatment plan. Our goal is to relieve pain, address any underlying issues, and prevent future occurrences of ingrown toenails.

Treatment Options

Depending on the severity of the ingrown toenail, treatment options at The Foot Practice may include:

• Conservative measures such as soaking the foot in warm water, wearing comfortable shoes, and applying topical antibiotics
• Partial nail avulsion to remove the ingrown portion of the nail and allow for proper healing
• Nail surgery for recurrent or severe cases to prevent future ingrown toenails

Our podiatrists will tailor the treatment plan to your specific needs, ensuring effective results and long-term relief from ingrown toenail pain.
