Discover Comfortable, Permanent Surgical Treatment for Ingrown Nails
Dr. Tareen and Dr. Elhiani is the foremost experts in permanent toenail treatment in our Torrance Podiatrist location and throughout South Bay, LA.
Millions of Americans suffer from ingrown toenails. Sometimes, the pain is so severe they find themselves missing work and canceling social activities. “Why, then, do they avoid treatment?” you might be asking. The reasons are simple: they do not know a permanent procedure is available, and they are afraid of pain. What they don’t realize is that home remedies are often more painful than medical treatment.
The Dangers of “Fixing” Ingrown Toenails At Home
In addition to being painful, home treatments are often dangerous. Here are the risks involved:
- Infection which might necessitate more extensive treatment
- Serious complications in people with circulatory problems such as infection, gangrene, and threatened lost of limb
- Return of the ingrown nail
How To Prevent The Return of Painful Ingrown Toenails
After Dr. Teles removes the portion of the nail that has grown into the skin, he will use a special chemical to destroy the nail root. In most cases, after surgery, toenails grow normally without imbedding themselves into the skin.
Here’s what you will experience during and after surgery, which can be performed in the comfort of our office:
- No pain during surgery
- You will be able to walk immediately
- You will be able to return to work the same day
