Ingrown Nail

Ingrown Nail Treatment by Dr. Rushin Thakor

An ingrown nail, medically known as onychogryphosis, is a common condition where the nail grows into the surrounding skin, causing pain, swelling, and sometimes infection. It most commonly affects the big toe and can result from improper nail trimming, tight footwear, or injury. Early intervention is crucial to prevent complications.
