Corrective nail surgery in Glasgow

Our professional team at Anniesland Footcare can answer any queries you may have regarding ingrowing toenail treatments and nail surgery.

Ingrown toenail treatment and surgery

Ingrown toenails are a very common and painful problem. The condition is most commonly observed in the big toe and can be a result of poor cutting techniques, aggravated by footwear and trauma. If the problem is recurrent and does not respond to conservative treatment, surgical removal of a nail section or in some cases the whole nail, can be performed under local anaesthetic.

How is the nail surgery performed?

Nail surgery is a painless procedure and is carried out by a qualified podiatrist. The side of the nail or even the full nail is removed under a local anaesthetic.

Treatment is given during surgery to ensure that the removed part of the nail does not grow back. We also provide aftercare and advice regarding how to prevent the problem reoccurring. We can also help you with posture correction treatment and general foot care. Contact us to book an appointment.

Nail conditions that may require surgery

Nail surgery is advised when the treatment to the affected nail has failed to deal with the issue. Other conditions where surgery may be required include:

Infected toenails
Deformed toenails
Painful toenails
Thick toenails
Fungal nail infections
