Ingrowing toenails can be a painful and persistent issue, often caused by improper nail trimming, tight footwear, or injury. When the edges of the nail grow into the surrounding skin, it can lead to discomfort, swelling, and sometimes even infection. At Fixing Feet, we provide effective treatments to relieve pain and prevent further complications, tailored to the severity of the ingrown toenail.
For mild cases, our podiatrists may gently trim the nail and offer advice on foot care practices to prevent recurrence. In more advanced cases, we offer partial nail avulsion—a minor procedure where only the ingrowing part of the nail is removed under local anaesthetic. This approach provides long-lasting relief, minimising discomfort and helping to prevent the issue from returning.
We understand that ingrowing toenails can significantly affect daily life, and our goal is to provide quick, compassionate care to restore your comfort. With our expert guidance and ongoing support, you can enjoy healthier, pain-free nails and prevent future issues.
