Treatments for Ingrowing nails
Ingrowing nails are common especially among the young, and those that are active and sporty.
They happen when a piece of nail pierces the flesh which can cause inflammation, bleeding and infection. They can be very painful and prevent you from carrying out normal activities.
There are numerous factors that mean you may be prone to ingrowing nail, including your posture and gait. They often begin after trauma or improper cutting.
Our podiatrists can often manage these conservatively but for chronic or repeated ingrowing nails minor surgery is often the best option.
