Common Conditions Requiring Nail Surgery
Nail surgery is recommended for the following conditions:
- Ingrown toenails (onychocryptosis): When the nail curves and pierces the surrounding skin, causing pain, swelling, or infection
- Chronic paronychia: Recurrent infection and inflammation of the nail folds
- Nail plate deformities: Trauma-induced or congenital deformities that impair nail appearance or function
- Fungal nail infections (onychomycosis): Resistant or recurring fungal infections affecting nail structure
- Benign nail growths: Such as myxoid cysts, glomus tumors, or warts under the nail
Biopsy for nail pigmentation: To rule out conditions like melanoma or lichen planus
