Ingrown Toenails

Ingrown Toenails involves changes to the toenail or surrounding skin that can cause discomfort, pressure, or difficulty with shoes. A focused evaluation can help identify the cause and guide an appropriate care plan.


Treatment Options


Mild ingrown toenails may improve with shoe changes and local care. More painful or recurrent cases can often be treated with a simple in-office procedure to remove the offending nail edge.


Preventing Recurrence


For recurrent ingrown toenails, treatment of the nail root may be recommended to reduce the chance that the painful edge returns.


When to Seek Care


Prompt evaluation is recommended for increasing pain, drainage, redness, swelling, or recurrent ingrown nails.


Schedule an appointment with Dr. Neville for evaluation and treatment of an ingrown toenail.
