FAQ's

  • Common causes include improper nail trimming, tight footwear, toe injuries, and natural nail shape. Our Canberra podiatrists will identify the underlying cause to prevent recurrence.

  • We offer gentle conservative care for mild cases and minor surgical procedures (Partial Nail Avulsion) for more persistent or painful ingrown toenails.

  • The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, so you won’t feel pain during treatment. Mild tenderness may occur afterwards but is usually short-lived.

  • Most patients return to normal activities the same or next day. Healing usually takes 2–3 weeks, depending on the procedure.

  • Mild cases may improve with proper nail care and footwear, but untreated ingrown toenails can lead to infection. Professional treatment is recommended for lasting relief.

  • Trim nails straight across, wear properly fitting shoes, and avoid cutting nails too short. Our podiatrists can provide personalised prevention advice during your appointment.
