Tis the season for ingrown toenails

Tis the season for ingrown toenails

Much like the calendar of annual celebrations, Podiatry also has seasonal moments. From Tracy’s 20 years of experience, our Clinic Director and lead Podiatrist has declared this the season of ingrown toenails and compression foot injuries.

But why is this?

At this time of year, we tend to get into heavier-duty shoes after a summer of sandals – waterproof trainers, wellies, walking boots, etc. These tight shoes can put pressure on the toenails, which can force them to curve and grow into the skin. In addition, wearing these tightly laced shoes and brand-new boots can compress your feet and lead to injuries.

If you have an ingrown toenail, there’s no need to suffer. Here at Holistic Health, our Podiatrists can treat and painlessly resolve this by draining any infection, trimming the nail properly, and—in cases where it is necessary—performing a swift and painless surgical procedure from the comfort of our London Fields clinic.

Meet the Podiatrists: Tracy and Conn

Between them, Tracy and Conn have appointments throughout the week, including evenings and weekends.

It couldn’t be more convenient to see them, simply book your initial appointment and they will diagnose, treat and (if necessary) book your surgery.

Here for you in every stage of health.
