What is an ingrowing toenail? An ingrowing toenail is where the nail pierces the skin on the toe. They can be extremely painful and cause inflammation and infection. What causes it? There are many reasons why an ingrowing toenail may occurr. Genetic factors can play a part, along with nail cutting technique and ill fitting footwear. Is it serious? Not normally, unless you have an existing condition such as a reduced immune system, poor circulation and diabetes. If infection is present this can spread to the rest of the toe and foot. What are the treatment options? Visit a podiatrist. They will assess whether an infection is present and antibiotics are required. The most important part is removing the problematic nail. This can be done gently by sectioning parts of the troublesome nail.
