Ingrowing toe nail is a painful condition of foot in which the edge of a nail, usually the big toe nail, grows into the surrounding soft tissue (paronychium) causing inflammation and subsequent infection. It is the commonest condition of foot presenting to a surgeon or a chiropodist. The condition is quite common in young people and may result in considerable morbidity in diabetics, immunocompromised and patients with peripheral vascular disease. This is a review article.
