THICK
TOENAILS & RIDGED NAILS
Thickening of
the nail may be caused by a fungal infection or occur following
severe trauma from an injury or the gradual irritation of a tight
shoe. The nail bed and matrix (root) can become irreversibly damaged,
causing the nail to grow abnormally thick and discoloured dark yellowish-brown.
Very often the first toe nail is affected but the disorder may
appear in the others. The excessive thickening makes cutting the nail
extremely difficult consequently is often neglected, with the result
of pain and discomfort from the shoe pressing against the nail.
Irrespective
of the cause, the nail should be cut with nail clippers and filed
down to as normal a thickness as possible so that the pressure on the
toe is relieved. If the patient is young and the condition is
confined to one toe and there are no contra-indications, total
surgical removal of the nail and matrix (root) may be considered the
most satisfactory long-term treatment
Of
course, if you have diabetes, vascular insufficiency, arthritis or a
neuropathy (where the sensation to the foot is diminished) immediate
care of a State Registered Chiropodist / Podiatrist is recommended.
They will be able to advise you and treat the nails painlessly.
