Nail Surgery
Surgical procedures are commonly performed by our skilled podiatrists to treat recurrent toe nail problems. If a nail continues to in grow, nail surgery may be required to reduce the risk of infection and to relieve the pain. This allows the nail to be reshaped and prevents it growing into the skin permanently. The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic via injection into the affected toe. This is very similar to dental procedures and is performed in the clinic. You are able to walk immediately after the procedure. Our podiatrists will perform a thorough pre-operative assessment and a post-operative care plan is advised and tailored to suit you.
