Request an AppointmentWhat is an Ingrown Toenail?
An ingrown toenail occurs when the edge of the toenail grows into the surrounding skin, causing pain, redness, swelling, and sometimes infection. Common causes include improper nail trimming, ill-fitting shoes, trauma, or genetic predisposition.
Symptoms of an Ingrown Toenail:
- Pain and tenderness along the side of the toenail
- Redness and swelling
- Pus or drainage (indicating infection)
- Warmth in the affected toe
Our Ingrown Toenail Removal Process
Our healthcare providers are skilled in diagnosing and treating ingrown toenails. Depending on the severity of your condition, we may recommend:
- Conservative Treatment: For mild cases, we may provide guidance on proper foot care and at-home remedies.
- Partial Nail Avulsion: For more severe or recurrent ingrown toenails, a minor in-office procedure is often performed. This involves numbing the toe, then carefully removing the small portion of the nail that is growing into the skin. In some cases, a chemical may be applied to prevent that section of the nail from regrowing.
- Post-Procedure Care: We provide clear instructions on how to care for your toe after the procedure to ensure proper healing and prevent recurrence.
The procedure is typically quick, performed under local anesthetic, and offers significant relief.
