Ingrown toenail surgery is a minor procedure used to treat nails that repeatedly grow into the surrounding skin. This can cause pain, swelling, and infection, making everyday activities uncomfortable.
At The Foot Clinics, we perform ingrown toenail surgery across Albury, Wodonga and Wagga Wagga, providing long-term relief for patients with persistent or severe ingrown nails.
Ingrown toenail surgery is a minor, highly effective procedure to treat toenails that grow into the surrounding skin, causing pain, redness, swelling, or even infection. This condition can make walking, exercising, or wearing shoes uncomfortable. Our skilled podiatrists use advanced techniques to safely remove the problematic portion of the nail and prevent it from regrowing, offering lasting relief and improved quality of life.

The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic to keep the area comfortable throughout treatment. Once the toe is numb, the ingrown section of nail is carefully removed, and a solution may be applied to help reduce the chance of that edge growing back. The toe is then cleaned and dressed, and you will be given clear aftercare instructions along with follow-up advice to help support healing.
