E-rx.onlineGocek: Local Notes for Ingrown Toenail
Gocek is a sailing and yacht harbour, so days on the water bring sun, wind and seasickness. Hiking boots that are too tight push the nail into the skin. Wear boots that fit and trim the nail straight.
Understanding Ingrown Toenail
The edge of a toenail, most often the big toe’s, can grow into the skin, causing pain, redness and sometimes infection.
Causes and Risk Factors
Nails cut too short or rounded, snug shoes, a knock to the toe, sweaty feet and nail shape play a part, and long hot walks aggravate it.
Symptoms of Ingrown Toenail
- Redness and swelling
- Overgrown skin around the nail
- Pain and tenderness along the edge of the nail
Care and Treatment for Ingrown Toenail
The physician looks at the toe on camera, advises on soaking and care, prescribes an antibiotic if there is infection and arranges a minor procedure with a clinician if it needs one. Depending on your case, the doctor may suggest warm soaks, antibiotics if infected and, if it keeps coming back, a minor nail procedure.
- Dry the foot well afterwards
- Soak the foot in warm water for 15 minutes a few times a day
- Wear open or roomy shoes
- Do not cut into the nail corner yourself
