Apr 28, 2024

When it comes to foot care and managing ingrown toenails, not all practices are created equal. At The Foot Practice, our team of experienced and highly skilled podiatrists are dedicated to providing top-notch care for all your foot health needs.

The Importance of Addressing Ingrown Toenails

Ingrown toenails can be a source of significant discomfort and pain if not properly managed. They occur when the edge of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, leading to redness, swelling, and sometimes infection. Ignoring the symptoms of an ingrown toenail can worsen the condition and may require more invasive treatment in the future.

  • Medication and Topical Treatments: We may prescribe medications or recommend topical treatments to help alleviate pain and reduce inflammation associated with ingrown toenails.
  • Nail Surgery: In severe cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to remove the ingrown portion of the nail and prevent future occurrences.

Preventive Foot Care Tips for Ingrown Toenails

Prevention is key when it comes to managing ingrown toenails. To help you maintain healthy feet and reduce your risk of developing this common condition, our podiatrists at The Foot Practice recommend the following tips:

  • Proper Toenail Trimming: Cut your toenails straight across and avoid rounding the corners to prevent ingrown toenails.
  • Wear Comfortable Footwear: Choose shoes that provide ample toe room and avoid tight-fitting footwear that puts pressure on your toes.
  • Maintain Good Hygiene: Keep your feet clean and dry to prevent fungal infections that can contribute to ingrown toenails.
