The procedure involves two injections of local anesthetic into the offending toe.
This is to completely numb your toe so you don't feel anything during the procedure.
Then either side or the entire nail will be removed.
A solution is rubbed into the base of the nail to prevent that part regrowing.
The procedure usually takes around 35 minutes. The patient can resume normal activities the next day. Full healing takes 4-8 weeks where a small dressing is placed over the toe daily for the first two weeks.
The patient will walk in and walk out following the procedure. They are advised to put their feet up for the rest of the day.
