Toe And Nail Pain
Pain in your toes or toenails deserves a visit to Oregon Institute of Foot Care. Toe and toenail pain can interfere with your ability to do the activities you love, making simple tasks such as standing or walking uncomfortable or impossible.
At Oregon Institute of Foot Care, Dr. Manson can evaluate your toe and toenail pain and give you relief! You don’t need to live with toe and toenail pain; in most cases, toe and toenail pain can be treated with conservative treatments. A visit to OIFC can help you resolve your toe and toenail pain before it becomes chronic and debilitating.
Causes and Treatments of Toe and Toenail Pain
Ingrown toenails
Ingrown toenails are one of the leading causes of toenail pain. They occur when the side of a toenail grows into the skin. This causes the skin to become red, swollen, and painful. It can even drain and become infected if left untreated. Dr. Manson is an Ingrown Toenail Specialist and often performs multiple ingrown toenail removal procedures daily.
Toenail Fungus
Toenail fungus is not just a cosmetic issue. It can cause the toenails to become thick, painful, and ingrown. Toenail fungus causes the toenail to become discolored, thickened, and often with fungal debris growing and accumulating underneath the toenail. Dr. Manson has developed the Lunula Laser Treatment Program to give you the best chance of success at treating your stubborn toenail fungus.
Corns
Corns are hard or soft growths of thick skin on the toes. They usually occur because of pressure on the tops of toes at the joints when hammertoes or crooked 5th toes are present, in between toes that rub against each other, or at the tips of toes that are curled (hammertoes) and rub on shoes and the ground. Shaving down and padding corns is often the first line of treatment. Dr. Manson will also evaluate your corn to determine the underlying cause so that can be treated to resolve the corn for good.
Bunions
Bunions are hard bony bumps that stick out at the big toe joint and are frequently painful in shoes and with activity. Dr. Manson treats bunions both conservatively and with an aesthetically appealing cosmetic bunion surgery.
Big Toe Arthritis
Long Toes
Long toes can cause pain because they rub and get irritated in shoes. Dr. Manson offers cosmetic toe shortening surgery to correct your long toes.
Broken Toes
Turf Toe
Gout
