Professional Podiatric Care for Persistent Nail Problems
Did you know...
-
Approximately 40% of adults experience toenail problems requiring professional intervention
-
Over 85% of nail surgery patients report significant improvement in foot comfort and mobility
Poor nail cutting, trauma and nail shape can all lead to ingrowing toe nails.
In some cases nail pain can be caused by a corn or dried skin developing at the side or beneath the nail. The nail may also have a natural curve (involuted) all of which can be equally as painful.
It is important to book in with a podiatrist who can assess and diagnose what is causing your nail pain. We can then develop a treatment plan that will be the most effective for you.
In some cases we will immediately be able to remove the piece of nail (or skin) that has been causing the problem to provide immediate relief. Where possible we will always try and treat the nails conservatively, however in some cases nail surgery is required to provide a more long term solution.
What is Nail Surgery?
Nail surgery is a precise podiatric procedure designed to address chronic and painful nail conditions that cannot be effectively treated through conservative methods. Our clinic specialises in minimally invasive nail surgeries that provide long-lasting relief and improved foot health.
When is Nail Surgery Necessary?
Patients may require nail surgery for various conditions, including:
- Persistent ingrowing toenails causing recurring pain and infection
- Severely thickened or deformed nails
- Repeated nail infections unresponsive to standard treatments
- Chronic nail conditions affecting mobility or quality of life
