Ingrowing Of Toe Nail

An ingrown toenail is a sharp corner that grows into the flesh — red, wet and too painful for a closed shoe.

Ingrowing Of Toe Nail

An ingrown toenail is a sharp corner that grows into the flesh — red, wet and too painful for a closed shoe.

Home digging usually makes it worse. We lift or remove the offending spike and teach a straight cut so it does not return.

Understand

What we explain in clinic

Spike

Why

Tight shoes, curved cutting, and a nail that is a bit too wide.

Infected

Now

Pus and proud flesh mean we treat infection and the spike together.

Repeat

Pattern

If it has happened three times, a small procedure saves the next year.

Socks

Daily

Dry, wide shoes beat another course of ointment alone.

Evaluation

What we look for

Which corner

Exam

We see how much nail is buried and whether bone is comfortable.

Lift or remove

OT

A local anaesthetic, a quiet few minutes, and a walking-out dressing.

Cut

Teach

Straight across, not a deep V, and file the sharpness.

Review

Dressing

We check the bed so the new nail grows above the skin, not into it.

At Grace Clinic

How care is planned

01

Skin mapping

We examine the rash, hair, nails or scars in good light and note triggers, duration and earlier treatment.

02

Clear diagnosis

Where needed we advise tests, biopsy or dermoscopy so treatment is specific, not trial-and-error.

03

A plan you can follow

Creams, procedures or laser are explained in simple steps, with a review date at Grace Clinic.

When to book

Book if you cannot walk in a shoe, there is pus, or you have diabetes and any nail-edge redness.
