🦶 Fungal Nails?

Now’s the Time to Act Before darker nights and months ending in er .
A
Makes It Worse! 🍁🧦 fungi love dark warm environments.

Fungal nail infections are unlikely to clear up on their own and as we head into cooler months, the conditions become even more favourable for them to spread.

Why treating now makes all the difference:

✔️ Warm, Damp Environments: Boots + thick socks = the ideal place for fungus to thrive.
✔️ Slower Nail Growth: Nail recovery takes time — start now to stay ahead of winter’s slowdown.
✔️ Stop the Spread: Address the infection before it causes more damage or discomfort. Remember fungal nails are not a primary but a secondary infection.
✔️ Feel Confident Again: Begin treatment now and you’ll be sandal-ready by spring . No more ugly nails

👣 Your feet will thank you for starting sooner rather than later. It’s takes a year approximately for nails to grow out root to tip .

🔙👣 Involuted Toenail! 👣🔙

Here’s a classic image showing a textbook example of an involuted toenail — where the nail curves inward and presses into the surrounding skin.

Some might look minor, but this kind of nail can become very painful if left untreated and can sometimes lead to ingrown toenails or infections.

The good news? It’s a condition we see and treat all the time here at The Laurels Podiatry Clinic!
Whether it needs conservative care or something more permanent like nail surgery, we’re here to help.
Elaine Broadbent Podiatrist has over 35 years experience in both the NHS and private practice. Gold standard policies and procedures always with evidence based medical best practices.

👣 Don’t let toenail pain linger
