Nuffield Podiatry provides assessment and management for common foot conditions such as ingrown toenails and fungal nail infections. Our clinic in Singapore offers a range of podiatry services supported by diagnostic tools and treatment options appropriate for various patient needs.
Individuals experiencing discomfort or persistent nail conditions may consider consulting our team for further evaluation and care planning.
Understanding Ingrown Toenails
Ingrown toenails occur when the edge of the toenail grows into the surrounding skin, which may result in discomfort, swelling, or infection. Common contributing factors include improper nail trimming, poorly fitted footwear, or hereditary conditions.
At Nuffield Podiatry, treatment options for ingrown toenails range from conservative care to surgical procedures, depending on severity and clinical evaluation. Management is tailored to each patient’s presentation and guided by clinical best practices.
Assessment and Treatment Options for Fungal Nail Infections
Fungal nail infections, also known as onychomycosis, are common in Singapore’s warm and humid climate. Signs may include discolouration, thickening, or brittleness of the toenails. If not addressed, the condition may progress and cause discomfort.
Nuffield Podiatry offers assessment and treatment options for fungal nail infections, which may include topical and/or oral therapies depending on the clinical presentation. Management plans are based on patient needs and aligned with established clinical guidelines.
