An ingrown nail, also known as onychocryptosis is a common form of nail disease. It is an often painful condition in which the nail grows so that it cuts into one or both sides of the paronychium or nail bed. While ingrown nails can occur in the nails of both the hands and the feet, they occur most commonly with the toenails (as opposed to fingernails), and for the most part are only problematic and painful on the big toe.
Ingrown toenails 相当常见,约占初级保健足部问题的 20%,通常影响大脚趾。它在年轻男性中更为常见,主要与指甲护理和穿鞋方式有关。无需手术的简便治疗包括:调整鞋子、控制足部出汗、处理指甲真菌感染,并在嵌入的指甲下放置棉花或牙线。对于轻度至中度病例,可尝试使用棉质指甲模型或用胶带粘贴甲褶等方法。手术的目的是防止甲板陷入甲襞,减轻炎症并降低复发风险。最常见的手术方式是部分甲板切除。也可通过基质切除术(手术、化学药物或电外科手术)来预防复发。 Ingrown toenails are quite common, accounting for about 20% of foot problems in primary care, often affecting the big toe. They're more common in young men, often due to how they care for their nails and the shoes they wear. Simple treatments without surgery include adjusting footwear, managing sweat and nail fungus, and placing cotton or dental floss under the ingrown nail. For mild to moderate cases, options like a cotton nail cast or taping the nail fold might help. Surgery aims to prevent the nail plate from digging into the nail fold, reducing inflammation and recurrence. The most common surgical method involves removing part of the nail plate. Matrixectomy, which prevents recurrence, can be done through surgery, chemicals, or electrosurgery.
Ingrown toenails (onychocryptosis or unguius incarnatus) 是皮肤科常见的一种指甲问题。 Ingrown toenail, also known as onychocryptosis or unguius incarnatus, is the most common nail problem encountered in podiatry, general family practice, and dermatology.
通过正确修剪指甲可以预防内生甲 (Ingrown nail)。鞋子过小或过窄会加重脚趾甲问题。
