How Ingrown Toenails Form







(800) 672-0625

Imagine this, you awake on a beautiful sunlit Sunday morning, the weather outside? Perfect. You arise out of your bed the image of perfection, your health is top notch and your physical form majestic. You hear the sound of birds chirping in the distance outside your window as you make your way to your bedroom closet as to change into your running attire. You put on a loose shirt and some comfortable pants which hang slightly baggy on your form. You take your time making your way downstairs and plop yourself down on the last step where you leave your running shoes. You unbundle a new pair of socks and place them on your feet. You untie your shoes previously made from the run before and slide your foot into your sneaker. But what’s this?! Pain! Pain in such graphic sensation! But why? What’s causing this pain, how did this happen and what did you do to deserve this?
My friend, you have what millions of other people around the world suffer from everyday; an ingrown toenail. But what caused it and why?
An ingrown toenail occurs when the toenail starts growing into the skin of the toe at a curve rather than straight out. this can happen on any toe, either foot but happens most commonly on the big toe. Ingrown toenails can be quite painful to the touch and can become swollen and red. If left untreated for too long they can also become severely infected.
Ingrown toenails can happen for all different reasons, but the most commonly due to not cutting nails properly. Other reasons may be hereditary, trauma or recent injury, or ill fitted shoes.
If you’ve been experiencing ingrown toenails your whole life then you most likely have a congenital condition which is just a fancy way of saying you were born with large toenails. If this is the case you must use caution when trimming your nails and try to cut them in a straight line across. Also be sure you’re not cutting your nails too short! Be sure the sure the shoes you wear provide ample space for your toes to discourage cramping!

Structure of the nail

(800) 672-0625


Learning about the structure of the nail is important and can help people better understand the necessity of proper nail care and hygiene. It can also help you identify any irregularities that you may see occur. The toenail, as with many other body parts, has its complexities. There are a total of 7 parts to the nail: the nail root, the lunula, the cuticle, the perionychium, the nail plate, the nail bed, the free edge.
1. The Nail Root – this is one of the main parts of the nail, which is more formally identified as germinal matrix. This is the tissue that rests beneath the skin and starts a couple millimeters into the finger or toe and ends at the base of the nail that Is visible. The root gains nutrients through your blood vessels and that is essentially how the nail is created.
2. The Lunula – also known as the “crescent” or “half-moon” is the part of the nail where you can usually see the white curved part at the base part of the nail. It is typically apparent on the fingernails, and much easier to notice on the thumbs or big toes. This part is at the edge of nail root and plays a large part in the formation of the nail.
3. The Cuticle – this area in formal terms is known as the eponychium, which is the part that rests between your skin and your nail plate at the base. The cuticle acts as a protective seal to protect from water getting underneath the skin at the base of the nail. Having a small amount of cuticle present is healthy for the nail.
4. The Perionychium – this part is similar to the cuticle, which rests between the skin and nail plate at the sides of your nails. Some experience the nail growing into the perionychium and the outcome is typically an ingrown nail or a hangnail.
5. The Nail Plate – The nail plate is the hard and brittle part of the nail where we typically cover with nail polish. It is translucent in color/appearance, since it is made of keratin. Typically people may notice it as pink in color; however that is only because the blood vessels sit beneath it. When looking at its structure it is seen as smooth yet grooved at the bottom. The groove is what allows it to stay intact with the nail bed.
6. The Nail Bed – This part is technically not part of the nail, however the nail bed is still imperative in the formation and creation of the nail. The bed is what gives the nails its strength and thickness, which is due to the nerves, blood vessels, and the melanocytes. The growth of the nail does not end at the root it actually continues to grow toward the free edge of the nail, which is why it is painful when the nail gets peeled back.
7. The Free Edge. – Lastly, the free edge. This part of the nail is the tip of the nail and usually appears as a white line. This part you may trim without pain, however it is the most susceptible part since it is the part that is least protected and no longer receives nourishment from the body. The part where the free edge connects to the tip of the toe or the tip of the fingernail is identified as “hyponychium.” Just like the cuticle, this part is what connects the nail and skin, protecting from water.
As you can tell, there are a number of different parts to the nail, probably more than you knew existed. The nail is a sensitive and fragile part of the body that needs to also maintain proper hygiene to remain healthy.

Sometimes Onychomycosis can even be caused by the weak circulation you can obtain from having diabetes.


Today, this embarrassing and sometimes painful ailment is completely treatable thanks to modern medicine! 

There are several different forms of treatment ranging from topical creams and sprays, oral medications, and in some situations, surgical removal of the infected nail. Side effects of may occur when taking oral medications such as; liver damage, headaches, dizziness, nausea, weight gain, fatigue, heart problems, the list goes on and on.

Nail Fungus: A Variety of Treatments


(800) 672-0625

People with nail fungus often don’t know what to do about it. They’ve probably tried researching the different nail fungus treatment options on the market, but it doesn’t always help. Some of them might seem reasonable, while others may put you off due to their side effects or success rate. If you have nail fungus you likely now know that there are a variety of types of nail fungus treatments, all of which are tried by people all over the world.
The least successful kind of nail fungus treatment is a nail fungus home remedy. Home remedies are the least successful nail fungus treatments available because they aren’t designed to get rid of nail fungus. However, because of their cheap price they are probably the most common. Despite this, if you use a home remedy such as tea tree oil you will likely just end up wasting your time and money. If you just want to keep you nail fungus from spreading, a home remedy might help, but otherwise you are better off skipping this common treatment option.
Topical and oral nail fungus treatment medications have been around for a little while now, but have varying degrees of success and safety rates. Topical medications do indeed have a better success rate than home remedies, but they still aren’t very high. Oral medications, on the other hand, are fairly successful but people who use them are putting themselves at great risk of harmful side effects such as liver damage. These side effects can no doubt be even worse than the nail fungus itself.
One kind of nail fungus treatment that is relatively new, but is getting more common each year is laser treatment. Nail fungus laser treatment is safe so patients don’t have to worry about harmful side effects. It also has a high success rate and is usually a very quick procedure, with most patients leaving the office in about an hour. If this sounds better than medications or home remedies, give it a try. If you still want to do a little more research, you should certainly talk to your podiatrist.

Nail Keratin


(800) 672-0625


Nail fungus, medically known as onychomycosis, digests keratin. Keratin is the protective layer of the nails, hair, and skin. When nail fungus attacks, the keratin begins to over produce and creates an extra amount, which essentially causes the nail to separate from the nail bed. This is very dangerous because not only are your nails beginning to lift and detach from its surfaces, it is also providing an entrance for fungi to come infect the nail and skin.
The best way to protect this keratin layer of your nails is to be cautious of the overall hygiene of your nails. Make sure if you frequent nail salons to bring in your own instruments and/or make sure their instruments are disinfected. Keep the nails as clean and dry as possible at all times. If you have a frequent sweating issue, apply a shoe spray to the inside of your shoes daily. After showering or leaving a pool make sure to dry the feet immediately of any moisture. Furthermore, it is important that if you have had the fungus before or are seeing signs of one to use an antifungal nail lacquer that serves as a protective shield.
If left untreated, onychomycosis can attack other nails and eventually spread to other parts of the body, which were otherwise healthy. Make sure to see your doctor if your nails appear discolored, abnormally thick, if you have swelling on the skin surrounding the nail, or you have a nail which appears to have separated from the nail bed.
