FOOT NOTES f by Dr. Cary Green Podiatrist, Foot Specialist and Surgeon Ingrown Toe Nails f Vri The ingrown toe nail is a common complaint. Usually, the nail of the big toe is involved, although the other nails can also become ingrown. Due to improper cutting, short or narrow shoes, foot imbalance, etc., the nail plate may curve causing the edge to press and cui into the tissue. Bacteria can then enter and a painful, infected ingrown toe nail results. Antibiotics and soaking can be helpful, but until the offending portion of the nail is removed it continues to be a source of irritation. Some over the counter medications will also give temporary relief but are not a permanent solution. If the curvature and shape of the nail result in repeated infections and pain, an office procedure can be used to remove that portion of the nail causing the problem and prevent it from growing back. 820 W.
