The pain and discomfort from your ingrown toenail can be indescribable. They are difficult to treat, persistent and unsightly.

Some may simply require conservative management; some may need antibiotic intervention, and some may require surgical intervention. It is always important to have them attended to as soon as possible by our trained professionals.

How do we resolve your ingrown toenail?
During your appointment your Podiatrist will assess the severity of your ingrown toenail. Depending on the assessment your Podiatrist will suggest an appropriate treatment plan and offer both surgical and non-surgical options to resolve the problem.
Depending on what happened at your first appointment, your next appointment will review how things are progressing. Your podiatrist may decide that surgical intervention is better for you where a Partial Nail Avulsion will take place. Learn more.
Once ingrown toenail has been treated effectively, your Podiatrist will review everything to ensure the problem has been managed appropriately. Your Podiatrist may perform several assessments such as a footwear assessment, biomechanical assessment, activity & exercise assessments and more. This will establish how and why the ingrown toenail may have occurred.
