Ingrown / Gnarly Toenails
Proper nail care is crucial for maintaining foot health. Whilst podiatrists commonly provide regular nail clipping services, they are frequently called on to address more serious nail issues such as ingrown and gnarly toenails.
Ingrown toenails, occurring when the edge of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, can lead to discomfort and infection if left untreated. Similarly, gnarly toenails, characterized by thickened or deformed nails often due to fungal infection or trauma, require specialized attention to prevent further complications.

Treatment Options
At BCP, we prioritize both routine nail care and the treatment of serious nail issues. Our podiatrists are skilled in safely trimming or removing ingrown nails, alleviating pain, and preventing recurrence. In severe cases, surgical nail removal may be necessary for long-term resolution. We also use a specialised nail grinding tool to gently reduce the thickness of gnarly nails, restoring a more natural appearance and relieving discomfort.
If you’re experiencing persistent discomfort or notice any abnormalities with your toenails, it’s essential to seek professional care. Contact us at BCP to schedule an appointment for expert evaluation and personalized treatment tailored to your needs.
