It’s time to treat your toenails. Ingrown toenails can occur on any toe and usually develop when tight fitting shoes put too much pressure on the nail causing it to grow into the skin of the toe. Incorrect toenail trimming, fungal infections and repeat impact on the toenail are all causes of ingrown toenails.
We can tend to your nail correctly providing you with advice as to how to care for your ingrown toenail and how to prevent it from happening in future. The offending piece of nail can be trimmed off usually solving the problem, however if the nail has been damaged and continues to grow into the skin it may be necessary for full or partial nail removal.
