Services
The nails can be reduced and cleaned up, I can discuss treatment options and take nail samples for path lab analysis if desired. Depending on the severity, either simply manage conservatively with cutting, try to encourage nail growth clear of the sulcus or administer Local Anaesthetic and remove part of the nail and prevent regrowth.
