2. Discussion of symptoms and history
3. Immediate conservative treatment if appropriate
4. Plan for future care or surgical removal if needed
Ingrown toenails commonly result from tight-fitting footwear, incorrect nail-cutting technique, injury to the toe, or natural nail shape. They can cause pain, redness, swelling and, if left untreated, infection.

Correct nail-cutting technique (straight across rather than rounded at the edges) and well-fitted footwear are the two biggest preventative factors. Your podiatrist can talk you through technique specific to your nail shape.
Yes, ingrown toenails are common in children and we manage these with a gentle, age-appropriate approach
