What are Ingrown Toenails?

An ingrown toenail is a medical condition in which the side or corner of a toenail grows into the soft flesh of the big toenail. The result is swelling, pain, infection, and redness. The condition usually affects the big toenail and any side can be affected.

Signs and symptoms of Ingrown toenail include:

  • Pain and Tenderness
  • Redness
  • Swelling
  • Infection
  • Bleeding
  • Overgrowth of skin around the toe

The causes of ingrown toenails are diverse, which are as follow:

  • Curved or irregular toenails
  • Incorrect cutting of toenails
    Genetic predisposition
  • Improper foot hygiene
  • Toenail injury
  • Poor posture of feet
  • Sports injuries
  • Inappropriate footwear (footwear that places a lot of pressure on the big toes)

Treatment of Ingrown Toenails at Renew Skin and Health Clinic:

At Renew Skin and Health Clinic in Leamington Spa, we have dedicated highly experienced orthopedic Surgeons who will discuss your options and can either partially excise the ingrowing toenail (This is preferred in ladies) or remove the entire diseased toenail, which will never grow back again. The procedure is done under local anesthesia; hence you will be fully awake during the surgery.

Please be aware that there is a downtime of over a week whilst you are recovering, and during this time you are expected to be in rest and keep the foot raised above you hip at all-time except when you need to use the bathroom.
