Surgical Treatments
Ingrowing Toenails
Ingrowing toenails can be extremely painful and, if left untreated, can lead to serious infections. Our podiatrists specialise in the diagnosis and treatment of ingrowing toenails, offering both conservative and surgical options based on your specific needs.
Conservative Treatments
- Proper nail trimming techniques
- Use of protective padding to alleviate pressure
- Application of topical medications to prevent infection
Surgical Treatments
-
Partial Nail Avulsion (PNA):
Removal of the ingrown section of the nail to relieve pain and prevent recurrence. -
Total Nail Avulsion (TNA):
Complete removal of the toenail in severe cases to allow a healthy nail to grow back. -
Matrixectomy:
Permanent solution involving the removal of the nail matrix to prevent the nail from growing back.
Other Surgical Treatments
In addition to ingrowing toenails, we offer a range of surgical podiatry treatments for various foot conditions, including:
