Treating Ingrown Toenails

Applying an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment and covering it with a bandage helps prevent infection. Avoid tight shoes and opt for open-toe footwear to alleviate pressure. If the pain persists or the toenail becomes infected, it's best to seek professional medical assistance. A podiatrist may perform a partial nail avulsion, carefully removing the ingrown toenails in Center Line and Royal Oak, MI, under local anesthesia to relieve pain and promote healthy nail regrowth.
