Fungal Nail Treatment in Linton-on-Ouse

Fungal nail infections are very common and can affect any nail, but most often affects the toenails. The infection is caused by the growth of fungus between the toenail and the skin underneath the nail bed, which feed off skin and nail keratin. Athlete’s foot, another very common foot condition that mainly affects the skin between the toes, can cause the fungus to spread to the toenails. Should you be requiring fungal nail treatment in Linton-on-Ouse or any of the nearby areas, then be sure to book an appointment with Stray Podiatry & Chiropody today.

Treating Your Fungal Nail

Stray Podiatry & Chiropody are now offering The Lacuna Method to treat fungal nail infections. Fungal Nail Infection (Onychomycosis) Is the most difficult of the superficial fungal infections to treat, as most topical agents are ineffective at penetrating the nail plate to reach the active infection on the nail bed (the skin under the nail). By making micro holes in the nail plate with the innovative and specially designed micro burrs, your podiatrist can enable you to apply an anti-fungal agent directly to the infected nail bed, which will spread under the nail as you walk. With daily application of the antifungal agent, the fungus is stopped from spreading and the damaged nail grows out. The procedure of making the holes in the nails is not painful.

Testimonials

"Absolutely brilliant service by Maxine. My mum who has dementia and Alzheimer’s had a major problem with her nails, Maxine replied to my email without delay and was at mum’s house the next day and sorted out her issues. Highly recommended and massive thanks to Maxine."

Chris Poole

"This was my first visit to a chiropodist so I was a little nervous but put at ease straight away by Katie who was friendly and professional. The Stray Podiatry building is clean and professional looking. I would highly recommend."

Matthew Greaves

"It was my first time visiting Stray Podiatry & Chiropody and a lovely experience- easy free parking right outside, a lovely large airy treatment room and fantastic service! A very thorough initial assessment, then great treatment and advice which fully addressed all my concerns. My feet now feel amazing - a huge thank you to Maxine, I will be back!"

Sara Hubbard

"On arrival the building looks modern and clean. I have been coming for a year know I see both practitioners. They have sorted My feet from having severe cracked bleeding heals to just very dry skin that needs treatment every 6-8 weeks. They give me lots of advice on the best way to treat my dry skin at home. I definitely recommend using them that’s why I make a 2 hour around trip to come over. Because I have not found such good professionals near me."
