An ingrowing toenail occurs when the edge of your nail grows into the skin at the side of your nail, causing pain, swelling and possibly infection.

Following a referral from your GP Practice, a 30 minute appointment can be made with one of our Surgeons to remove the in-growing toenail. The procedure is done under a local anaesthetic and so you are able to go home the same day.
