About Ingrown Toenail in New Delhi
An ingrown toenail is a common condition in which the edge or corner of a toenail, most often the big toe, grows into the surrounding soft skin rather than straight across, causing pain, irritation, and often secondary infection. It typically develops gradually as the nail edge pierces the skin fold along the side of the nail, triggering an inflammatory response that can progress to redness, swelling, and drainage if left untreated. While often a minor nuisance, ingrown toenails can become significantly more serious in people with diabetes or poor circulation, where even minor foot infections can progress rapidly and are slower to heal. Prompt attention to early symptoms and proper nail care can prevent most cases from becoming infected.
