Ingrown Toenails

An ingrown toenail occurs when the edge of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, often causing pain, redness, swelling, and sometimes infection. This condition commonly affects the big toe and can result from improper nail trimming, tight footwear, repeated trauma, or hereditary nail shape.

If left untreated, ingrown toenails can worsen and become infected, making walking uncomfortable or even unbearable. Signs of infection include pus, warmth, and persistent pain.

We offer safe, effective treatment for ingrown toenails, including:

  • Gentle lifting and trimming of the affected nail
  • Soaks and antibiotic therapy for infected nails
  • Partial or full nail removal when necessary
  • Permanent nail correction to prevent recurrence

Our goal is to relieve your pain quickly and help you prevent future issues. If you're experiencing discomfort from an ingrown toenail, don’t try to fix it at home—come see us for proper care and long-lasting relief.
