In today’s blog, we’ll be focussing on one specific area of our business, and telling you everything you need to know about toenail surgery. We’ll cover the reasons you might need to have toenail surgery, what toenail surgery involves, where to get toenail surgery, and how much it costs.
​
Let’s jump straight in with a definition of what toenail surgery actually is, before tackling the other topics.

What is toenail surgery?

Toenail surgery is, unsurprisingly, surgery carried out on one or more toenails. It can come in many forms, and the term covers everything from surgery for toenail avulsion, ingrown toenails, toe infections, and toenail removal.

Why might I need toenail surgery?

Issues with toenails can be extremely uncomfortable at best, and debilitating at worst. If you suffer from ingrown toenails for example, it can worsen your quality of life and leave you in a lot of pain. Ingrown toenail surgery is probably the most common form of toenail surgery available, and over 10,000 people suffer from ingrown toenails every year in the UK alone.

But it’s not all ingrown toenail surgery. You might also need toenail surgery if you’re suffering from a toenail infection or if your toe is swollen or inflamed, and if your symptoms don’t go away after a few days or after a course of antibiotics. Oh, and by the way, we can prescribe antibiotics for your podiatry requirements, so if you want a direct, quicker resolution, it’s best to go straight to a specialist like ourselves rather than your GP.
​
If you think you might need ingrown toenail surgery, or you’re experiencing any of the above symptoms, don’t hesitate to get in touch with Teesside Podiatry Clinic today to book an appointment. ​We offer everything from nail removal surgery to nail avulsion surgery, ingrown toenail surgery and more, and we always ensure that there’s no infection after any toenail surgery thanks to the strict hygiene and safety standards we implement.

How much does toenail surgery cost?

Toenail surgery costs can vary depending on what you need, but at Teesside Podiatry Clinic, we charge a fixed price of £400.

Within this, all follow-up appointments and dressing changes are included, as well as local anaesthetic administration during the procedure. We also offer a thorough discussion before anything is carried out, so you’re kept fully in the loop with regards to surgery, recovery times, and everything you need to know about your treatment.
​
In addition to all of the above, our experts have the ability to send letters to employers just like a GP does, and we use advanced, M4 laser treatments to stimulate and speed up healing.
