An ingrown toenail can turn a small problem into a painful one fast. We treat it gently, and for nails that keep coming back, we can fix them for good.
What It Feels Like
Pain and tenderness along the nail edge
Redness and swelling beside the nail
Sometimes discharge or signs of infection
A nail that keeps digging in and flaring up
Common Causes
Nails cut too short or curved at the edges
Tight footwear
Injury to the toe
A naturally curved nail shape

Advice to stop it returning

When to Get It Checked
If the toe is red, swollen, weeping, or the pain keeps returning, book in rather than digging at it yourself.
COMMON QUESTION
Can it be fixed permanently?
Yes. A quick procedure in the clinic resolves recurring ingrown nails with minimal downtime.
