What is an ingrown nail?

An ingrown toenail is an affliction affecting mainly the toe nail, involving pressure or penetration into the tissue of the lateral nail shaft, which causes discomfort, pain and the development of inflammation, depending on the severity.

Causes of an ingrown nail include:

• improper shortening of the nail plate - rounding of the lateral edges of the nail, wedge cutting of the lateral edges of the nail,
• wearing uncomfortable shoes, with narrow tips, shoes with heels, compression socks,
• injuries to the toes and nails.

Ingrown toenails are a common problem in teenagers who are actively involved in sports, but are sometimes diagnosed in children as young as a few years old.

What to do about an ingrown toenail?

Therapy of an ingrown toenail includes conservative, non-invasive as well as invasive methods. The goal of conservative management is to protect the lateral nail shaft from pressure injury to the nail edge, decompress the lateral shaft and open the growth track for the nail.

Non-invasive methods include taping or taping, tamponing, which is the insertion of a small non-woven compress dressing into the lateral shaft, or the use of protective tubes. The liquid for ingrown nails Podology professional, which has a softening and elasticizing effect, is also among the non-invasive methods, to be used both in the podiatrist's office and at home.

To counter the problem of an ingrown toenail:

• choose well-fitting shoes of the right size and shape,
• trim nails correctly - in accordance with their natural shape, "straight" and without excessive rounding of the edges,
• when you see the first symptoms of the problem, consult a podiatrist.

Pro-environmental steps

Feet carry us through the world, to make this journey pleasant also for the environment, it is worth taking small pro-environmental steps.
For the production of FLOSLEK cosmetics cartons, we use FSC paper and emphasize the importance of proper segregation of packaging waste.

The bottle in which we packed the ingrown nail lotion is made of transparent glass. Glass is a raw material that does not lose its properties after subsequent recycling processes, and can be recycled without loss of quality. Dispose of the bottle in the green container, the cap with the brush in the yellow one. It is a good idea to separate the label from the bottle - labels stuck with a strong glue to glass packaging can cause the stuck pieces of glass to end up in the mixed waste stream and will not reach the glassworks.

How to use: apply the liquid with a brush to the edge of the nail at the point of pressure on the skin and in the hollow between the skin and the nail. Apply until visible softening (10-14 days), allowing removal of the ingrown part of the nail. Wash hands after using the product. Use with caution. Do not use on wounds, scratches.
