Product Information

Bend the second end of the toenail brace to the opposite side of your toenail to find its correct length. Many people suffer ingrown toenails that would have been avoided entirely with a bigger pair of shoes.

Whether you've groomed your feet a little too aggressively (more on that later) or you're a runner who's parted with a toenail, ingrowns are a common if unsightly issue. Ideas like sticking a piece of cotton between the nail and your skin or cutting a notch in the side of the toe are not only ineffective, they’re dangerous.The wound should be healed after four to six weeks with the nail sitting above the surrounding soft tissue. Before doing anything, wash your foot and the sore area carefully with a mild soap and clean running water, and do the same with your hands, making sure to brush under the nails with a nail brush, and wash the back of the webbed area between the thumb and the hand, the backs of the nails, and between the fingers. They’re also surprisingly hard to heal - sometimes, by the time people arrive in the clinic, it has been going on for six months, often without any neglect.

If you notice the edge of one of your toenails growing into the flesh surrounding your nail, you’ll want to get relief as soon as possible.

Teenagers sweat more, and a soft sweaty nail becomes more likely to fracture and break into sharp pieces. This is a procedure that needs a spotless clinical environment with all the right equipment at arms length. It doesn't mean cutting a neat little 'v' in the middle, but cutting back the middle of the nail (to stop it hitting the shoe and deal with growth) while leaving the two edges of the nail (where they meet the skin) longer.
