Nail surgery is a quick, safe, and effective procedure used to treat painful or recurring toenail problems, especially ingrown toenails. When a nail grows into the surrounding skin, it can cause significant pain, swelling, and sometimes infection. For many patients, this discomfort makes walking or wearing shoes difficult, and conservative treatments may only provide temporary relief. Nail surgery offers a long-term solution by addressing the source of the problem.

The procedure is performed in-office under local anesthesia, keeping you comfortable throughout. Your podiatrist removes the portion of the nail that is causing pain, or in severe cases, the entire nail. For chronic or recurring issues, a special technique can be used to prevent that part of the nail from growing back, reducing the chance of future problems.

Most patients experience immediate relief and can walk right after the procedure. Recovery is simple, requiring basic wound care, clean dressings, and follow-up visits to ensure proper healing.

At Sole Vista Podiatry, we take a gentle, personalized approach to nail surgery. We thoroughly evaluate your symptoms, explain the procedure, and provide clear aftercare instructions to promote fast, healthy healing.
