Nail Removal Surgery

Nail removal surgery is a simple and effective procedure performed to treat painful or infected nails, most commonly caused by ingrown toenails, fungal infections, or trauma. The goal of the surgery is to relieve discomfort, prevent recurrent infections, and promote the growth of a healthy new nail.

When is Nail Removal Surgery Needed?

You may be advised to undergo nail removal if you experience:

• Persistent pain or swelling around the nail
• Recurrent ingrown nails that don’t improve with conservative care
• Severe fungal infection not responding to medications
• Pus or discharge from the nail bed
• Nail deformity or thickening causing discomfort in shoes

Procedure:

Nail removal surgery is performed under local anesthesia.

• The affected area is cleaned and numbed.
• The surgeon carefully removes part or all of the nail.
• In some cases, the nail root may be treated with a chemical or laser to prevent regrowth if chronic infection is present.
• The wound is dressed, and healing typically occurs within a few weeks.

Benefits:

• Relief from chronic pain and infection
• Prevents recurrence of ingrown nails
• Improves nail appearance and hygiene
• Quick recovery and minimal discomfort

Post-Surgery Care:

• Keep the dressing clean and dry
• Elevate the foot to reduce swelling
• Avoid tight shoes or pressure on the toe
• Follow your surgeon’s advice for wound care and medications
