At Foothealth Battersea, we understand that fungi thrive in warm, dark, and moist environments, making the feet vulnerable to infections. Many fungal nail issues stem from the same fungi responsible for conditions like athlete's foot.

Ingrown toenails, where the nail grows into the skin, can cause intense pain, inflammation, and a potential infection. This condition often alters the appearance and texture of the nail.

When you visit us at Foothealth Battersea, our podiatrists conduct a thorough assessment of your feet and nails. For fungal infections, we may take a sample to identify the specific fungus involved. Treatment typically includes prescribed antifungal medications, either applied directly or taken orally, depending on the severity. We also provide guidance on effective foot hygiene and suitable footwear to help prevent future infections.

For ingrown toenails, our podiatrists expertly trim or remove the ingrown section of the nail to alleviate discomfort and reduce the risk of complications. In more severe cases, a minor surgical procedure may be necessary for a lasting solution. Post-treatment, we offer comprehensive advice on how to care for your toes and minimise the likelihood of recurrence.

At Foothealth Battersea, our goal is to help you effectively manage these conditions, ensuring the ongoing health and comfort of your feet.

For patients with diabetes or any other conditions that can affect foot health, we offer a thorough neuro-vascular foot health assessment at Foothealth Battersea. These assessments are crucial, as diabetes and certain other health conditions can impair circulation and nerve function in the feet, leading to increased risks of complications such as ulcers and infections.

During your assessment, our expert podiatrists will carefully examine the circulation and nerve sensitivity in your feet. This involves testing blood flow, checking for any signs of neuropathy (nerve damage), and assessing skin integrity. These evaluations help us identify any potential issues early on and develop a personalised care plan to mitigate risks and promote optimal foot health.

At Foothealth Battersea, we are committed to providing proactive care to prevent foot complications associated with diabetes and other health conditions. Our goal is to ensure that your feet remain healthy, comfortable, and well-protected, allowing you to maintain an active and fulfilling lifestyle.

Ingrown Toenails at FootHealth Battersea

Ingrown toenails are a common and often painful condition where the edge of a toenail grows into the surrounding skin, typically on the big toe. This can lead to swelling, redness, and in some cases, infection. At FootHealth Battersea, patients with ingrown toenails can expect a thorough assessment and personalised treatment options to alleviate pain and prevent future complications.

What to Expect During Your Visit

Comprehensive Consultation: When you visit FootHealth Battersea for an ingrown toenail, you'll begin with a detailed consultation. A skilled podiatrist will ask about your symptoms, medical history, and any previous treatments or issues with your nails. The podiatrist will carefully examine your foot, looking for signs of infection, inflammation, and the exact location of the ingrown nail.

Treatment Options: Based on your condition, the podiatrist will recommend a tailored treatment plan, which may include one or more of the following:

Conservative Care: For mild cases, non-invasive measures such as soaking the foot, trimming the nail properly, and using special padding may be suggested. The goal is to relieve pressure on the affected area and allow the toenail to heal naturally.

Nail Border Removal: In some cases, the podiatrist may perform a minor procedure to remove part of the ingrown nail. This is often done under local anesthesia and provides relief by removing the portion of the nail that is embedded in the skin.

Permanent Solution: For recurring or more severe cases, the podiatrist may recommend a more permanent solution such as a nail matrixectomy, where a portion of the nail matrix (the part of the nail that produces new nail growth) is removed to prevent the nail from growing back incorrectly. This procedure is also performed under local anesthesia and has a high success rate in preventing recurrence.

Aftercare Advice: After treatment, patients are usually given instructions for at-home care. This can include keeping the foot clean and dry, avoiding tight shoes, and perhaps soaking the foot to promote healing. In some cases, a follow-up appointment may be scheduled to ensure the toe is healing properly and that no complications, such as infection, arise.

Pain Management: Most treatments for ingrown toenails are minimally invasive and come with very little downtime. Any discomfort experienced after treatment can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relief. The team at FootHealth Battersea will ensure you are fully informed about any post-treatment expectations.

Preventive Care: To avoid future ingrown toenails, your podiatrist will provide advice on nail care, such as how to trim nails correctly (straight across rather than rounded) and how to choose shoes that do not put pressure on your toes.
