WHAT ARE THE POSSIBLE REASONS FOR AN INGROWN
OR INVOLUTED NAIL?
The cause of the problem needs to be resolved in the correct way in order to achieve long-term success with a nail correction system. The corners of the nails should not be cut too short.
Possible causes of Unguis incarnatus (ingrown toenail) or Unguis convolutus (involuted toenail):
- Incorrectly cut nail plate (corners of the nails cut down too far)
Growth disorders (pincer nails)
Genetic disposition
Foot malformations
Toes that are too long
Valgus malposition on the big toe (leaning sideways/Hallux valgus)
Toes that cross over (Digitus superductus)
Shoes that are too tight
Shoes without much support
Overloading the feet
Severe sweat production
Overweight
Nail mycosis
