The image above shows a professional podiatry procedure where an infected ingrown toenail is being carefully treated. You can see the nail edge digging into the skin, causing redness, swelling, and possible infection. In many cases, thickening and discoloration may also indicate a fungal nail infection (onychomycosis).
An ingrown toenail occurs when the nail grows into the surrounding skin instead of over it. This condition can lead to:
-
Severe pain and tenderness
-
Swelling and redness
-
Pus or fluid discharge
-
Difficulty walking
-
Risk of deeper infection
If left untreated, the infection may worsen — especially for people with diabetes or weakened immune systems.
