I remove a couple of ingrowns every couple of months. It happens on all but my little toes..

Seems there's a good theory that it isn't always dodgy nails, but too much skin. which causes the problem.

 

Google 'Vandenbos procedure' for full details !  or here ( http://www.overgrown....ca/toe-surgery) <- not for the faint hearted warning

 

I can't find a doctor in the Uk willing to give me Vandenbos in his surgery, and the NHS don't offer it in hospitals

 

Wearing wider shoes has really helped recently :)


900 with better bits. Owes me nothing, Makes me smile

It's ok as I've got central heating and a roof. :D  My main concern is not spilling hot water, or dropping summat, onto my toe when wearing me sandals.

 

I was informed that once the nail bed is damaged, loike mine was when I used it to park my bike on it, the nail will always grow in a deformed state.  Soooo, better to remove the nail and prevent regrowth using Phenol (acid)
