Ingrown Toenails & Nail Surgery Pannal

Ingrown Toenails Pannal

Ingrown toenails (Onychocryptosis) are a common problem where the nail grows into the skin on one or both sides of the toe. Big toenails are most commonly affected, although the other toes can also develop problems. They may be caused by tight fitting footwear, incorrect nail cutting, injury to the toenail or unusually curved toenails (involution). Symptoms may include pain, redness, swelling, pus and can result in an infection that requires antibiotics.

Preventing Ingrown Toenails

If you regularly suffer from ingrown toenails, then there are a number of things you can do to help prevent them. Some patients may benefit from conservative treatments such as regular nail care appointments to remove any nail which is causing a problem. In certain cases where a toenail has become very inflamed or even infected, or if a patient is wanting a more permanent solution, nail surgery may be a viable option. To discuss ingrown toenail treatment options, then please don't hesitate to get in touch with us. One of our team is always on hand to assist and answer questions.

Nail surgery is a procedure that involves having a local anaesthetic into your toe to numb it, before having either one or both sides (partial nail avulsion) or the full nail removed (total nail avulsion). Once the nail has been removed, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is worked into the nail matrix to stop the nail from growing back. As with any surgery there are risks and benefits and your podiatrist will need to discuss the procedure with you and assess your suitability for nail surgery. Should you be looking for a nail surgery specialist near Pannal or any of the surrounding areas, then be sure to get in touch with us today.

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."
