Ingrowing Toenails
Updated: Feb 12
An Ingrowing Toe Nail is when a piece of nail pierces the flesh of the toe It can be extremely painful and inflamed or infected. In sever cases it can cause a discharge ( pus) and swelling of the side of the toe which can bleed very easily.
If you think you have an ingrowing toe nail you should make an appointment with a Podiatrist as soon as possible. If treated by one of our Podiatrists early enough, we can often resolve the issue easily ( sometimes in a single appointment).
Should we be unable to treat the toe conservatively and Nail Surgery is required either a Partial or Total Nail Removal, at AA Podiatry we aim to offer surgery within 7 days of your initial consultation so as to relieve discomfort as quickly as possible.
The content is clear, well paced and refreshingly light on jargon. Every claim seems carefully considered, which makes the whole article feel reliable. I made a few notes that will help with an assignment I am finishing this month. Such thoughtful writing is well worth passing along.
