Professional Routine Foot Care

Fungal nail infections are extremely common and can cause nails to become thickened, brittle, discoloured and difficult to manage. Although they are rarely serious, they can be persistent and often do not improve without professional care.

​

During your appointment, your podiatrist will assess the affected nail and discuss the treatment options most suitable for you.

 

Where appropriate, the nail can be carefully reduced to improve comfort, reduce thickness and enhance its appearance. We'll also explain the benefits and limitations of available treatments, helping you choose the approach that's right for you.

​

As fungal nail infections can take many months to improve, ongoing care and good foot hygiene are important in reducing the risk of recurrence. We'll provide practical advice on preventing reinfection and maintaining healthy nails, giving you the best opportunity for long-term improvement.
