Ingrown Toenail Correction Boynton Beach Options

If you have an ingrown toenail, the following are some of the ingrown toenail correction Boynton Beach options that podiatrists almost always recommend their patients:

• Use of open-toed footwear to prevent putting too much pressure on the toes
• Putting thing absorbent cotton with antimicrobial ointment under and around the nail
• Soaking the toe in lukewarm water with salt to soften the nails
• Administering oral antibiotics if there is already infection or if there is a high chance that infection will occur.

If infection occurs over and over again and if there is already an overgrowth of tissue around the nail, then the Mattison Podiatry Group doctors usually recommend surgery.
