Ingrown toenail is one of the most common problems in outpatient surgery in terms of recurrence rate, duration of follow-up, and number of treatment failures. In surgical practice, patients with an ingrown toenail of the first toe are more common, due to anatomical prerequisites and lifestyle features. The article presents a clinical case of a patient with an ingrown toenail of the second toe and an example of achieving sustainable recovery.
The article evaluates a conservative method of treating an ingrown nail of the second toe in outpatient surgery. This non-invasive approach is effective even with atypical localization of the pathological process besides it minimizes pain from treatment.
