Selimiye: Local Notes for Ingrown Toenail
Selimiye suits walkers and explorers, but sun, ticks, insects and uneven paths mean minor injuries and bites are common. Close by are Bozburun, Kumlubuku, Adakoy, which share the same medical services. Hiking boots that are too tight push the nail into the skin. Wear boots that fit and trim the nail straight.
How to Lower Your Risk of Ingrown Toenail
Cut nails straight across, not too short, and wear shoes that give your toes room.
How Ingrown Toenail Is Treated
The doctor looks at the toe on camera, advises on soaking and care, prescribes an antibiotic if there is infection and arranges a minor procedure with a clinician if it needs one. Treatment can involve warm soaks, antibiotics if infected and, if it keeps coming back, a minor nail procedure.
- Soak the foot in warm water for 15 minutes a few times a day
- Do not cut into the nail corner yourself
