Ingrown nail - this is serious. One of the problems, which should not turn a blind eye.
If you do not get rid of even at an early stage of the ingrown nail (just gently remove the ingrown part), It can run up to such a degree that the surgeon will have to remove the entire nail and re-grow a new nail plate. And it is long and the whole process is unpleasant.
Ingrown nail nail roll in the skin has its own medical name - ingrown nail. ingrown toenail problem is mainly formed on the big toe.
The causes of ingrown toenail
In the first place - is uncomfortable shoesWith a narrow nose and not by size. The narrow nose in shoes - almost 100% cause the formation of an ingrown nail.
It's simple: because of the narrow nasal our fingers "squeezed into a pile", while squeezing the lateral edge of the nail skin on his thumb as if lifted, and the nail at this time increases. That's the nail gradually grows into the skin.
The second common cause - heavy loads on their feetEspecially on the toes.
The third reason -
wrong pedicure: Sloppy cut nail, left a hangnail, cut angle (and to do that, you should not) Or too short trimmed nails.Other reasons for the formation of ingrown nails:
1) pregnancy and the postpartum period (1.5-2 months. after childbirth);
2) flat foot, and other types of deformation, due to which the thumb is bent;
3) Fungus: fingernail due fungus becomes thicker, and it literally bites into the side portion okolonogtevogo roller;
4) damage to the big toe (mechanical, frostbite, etc.);
5) the excess soft tissue laterally okolonogtevogo roller which above the nail plate;
6) skin diseases (psoriasis before stripping), all this provokes a deformation of nail plate;
7) obesity, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes.
Why ingrown nails - it is a serious problem?
When a nail sticks into okolonogtevoy roller, first there is a small inflammation and swelling. I felt an uncomfortable tingling. Then it tingling nail will be very noticeable and patients. Further formed suppuration and ingrown nail problem becomes chronic.
If you start the problem, not only that person would be painful to walk into any shoe shy plus summer walking in sandals or slippers without socks. There is still pus may enter the bloodstream, sepsis and hello!
Is it possible to solve the problem at home
Yes, but only at an early stage of ingrown nail.
To begin, we must abandon the narrow and uncomfortable shoes. And by the way, do not listen never about bike sellers' yes take a close, do not worry, spacing ". No no and one more time no. Tight shoes for a very high price in the form of an ingrown nail.
Change your socks twice a day. Baths with salt solution and a weak solution of potassium permanganate - is practically useless thing, plus a possible risk of chemical burns of the skin of the foot, if you overdo it with potassium permanganate.
More or less save iodine: pointwise applied 2-3 times a day on the nail portions ingrowth. Soft tissue okolonogtevogo roller will have a chemical burn, they die, become denser and can be cut. Yes, cheap and cheerful, but I do not recommend it. I'm still a supporter of the sensitive solution to the problem, which will be discussed below.
I sign for stages, how to remove the ingrown nail professional cosmetics (on Domix example, their products now use all the normal pedicure and manicure salons).
Step 1. My feet, wipe dry and sprayed on the finger nails antiseptic Totaldez (spray is convenient, but will come down, and gel).
step 2. Apply a softener to the nail plate ingrown toenail area.
step 3. Pipetted remuver cuticle.
step 4. Harvesting nail scissors length of nail plates, the nails form nail file attach.
step 5. Pusher shifts the inner lining.
step 6. Tongs give rise parallel to the nail plate and remove the sharp corners of the ingrown nail.
step 7. Plugging: in the pharmacy you can buy "kapolin" - it is such a thin sticky rim, impregnated with antiseptics, which lay pedicure curette on the edge of the nail plate.
After removing the sharp corners of the nail as a preventive recommend a lubricant at the problem of ingrown nail on a daily basis (in Domix it is called, it comes with an extract of propolis, which quickly heals wounds and regenerates the cells of the nail plate).
What to do in severe cases?
Home care does not help. You need to go to the Podiatry. There may have been put titanium thread that within six months should straighten the nail plate. Photos will not publish with titanium thread, they are very unethical :-)
More ingrown nail removed by laser, and are less likely to relapse than conventional surgical removal. So remember that completely remove ingrown nails - it is the last century. In chiropodists have modern and delicate solution.
And that there is no recurrence, I repeat for the third time - wear loose and comfortable shoes, even if she has an ugly design.
