Ingrown toenail treatment by a podiatrist - PiedRéseau Rosemont
At PiedRéseau Rosemont, we offer specialized treatment for ingrown toenails, also known as onychocryptosis. This common issue, often affecting the big toe, occurs when a portion of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, leading to inflammation and discomfort. Our podiatrists are equipped with the skills and tools necessary to provide effective care tailored to your specific needs.
Our approach includes various treatment options, starting with medical nail clipping, where our podiatrists customize the nail cut to alleviate pain and prevent further issues. We also utilize antibiotic creams and baths to reduce inflammation, ensuring a comprehensive treatment plan. For those who require more advanced solutions, we offer orthonyxia, a non-invasive method using specialized splints to modify nail growth and relieve pressure.
In cases where surgery is necessary, our clinic provides a minimally invasive procedure known as matricectomy. This surgery is performed under local anesthesia and focuses on removing the problematic portion of the nail while preserving its appearance. Our experienced team ensures that the procedure is efficient, allowing you to resume daily activities quickly.
The PiedRéseau Rosemont team is led by Dr. Constance Ladouceur Deslauriers, along with Dr. Ann-Lyse Sanon and Dr. Salomé Archambault Boisvert, all qualified podiatrists. They are supported by our dedicated nursing staff, Michèle and Mustapha, who provide attentive care throughout your treatment journey.
