Let's talk toenails! Especially the 5th toe.

A common trait of the 5th toe is the accessory nail, also known as a petaloid nail (because it kind of looks like a flower petal). This is an extra nail that grows on the 5th toe. It can be separate or adjoined to the main nail, but generally shares the same nail bed.

This is thought to be a genetic trait. It's possible that it is caused by the presence of a 6th toe that is reabsorbed by the fetus prior to birth, but the nail remains. It's usually not painful, and needs no treatment. It's more of a curiosity than anything else. In some ethnic groups, 50-75% of people may have this trait. It generally affects both feet.

Ouch! I broke a nail!

Sometimes we say that as a joke, but when it happens for real it's anything but funny! If you tear a nail down into the nail bed, it will bleed and be quite painful. What's the best way to manage it so you aren't always catching it on your socks, and having to wear a bandage while you wait a month or two for it to grow out?

I fixed mine with MedFlex nail reconstruction. It goes on over top of the existing nail, so there's no pain, and it will keep that nail smooth and safe while it grows out on its own. There's no special care and I can hang out at the hot springs or even put nail polish over top. Not my best work - it's harder to do your own nails than someone else's! - but you get the idea.

A big thank you to our clients, whose generous tipping has allowed us to provide free socks, ongoing subsidized foot care for four people this year, and a free foot care clinic for 8 people yesterday!

Any time we receive a tip for our services, we put it into a fund to help partially cover the cost of foot care for people living with limited budgets.
