Podiatry Treatments
If a toenail becomes too painful or problematic to manage, whether due to thickening or recurring ingrowth, toenail removal surgery is a very minor procedure that can provide a permanent solution to the discomfort.
A local anaesthetic is used to numb the affected toe, and the procedure is completed within 20 minutes in most cases. A padded dressing is applied to protect the toe for the first 48 hours, after which it can be removed.
Return to work or school within a day or two is possible in most cases, and in most cases healing should complete within 6-10 weeks.
It is recommended you arrange transport to and from your nail surgery appointment as the administration of a local anaesthetic in your toe will render you unfit to drive and will affect your insurance.

I can't recommend Feet First enough. I was made to feel so comfortable and welcome the minute I met Romy. I had such dry hard skin on my feet that I couldn't get a hold on myself. After 1 appointment my feet are so soft and no more hard skin! Romy is amazing at what she does and is such a lovely person! Highly recommended.
I visited yesterday and was warmly met by Romy. She's friendly, professional and knowledgeable. She sorted out my feet, no discomfort, she made me feel relaxed. Ifyou're thinking of visiting, make that appointment now! Stay Cool and make your feet fit to be seen in public!! 😎
Romy is a miracle worker. I have psoriatic arthritis which badly affects my feet resulting in hard skin buildup in odd places. I arrive feeling every step I take and leave gliding on pillows. My appointments with Romy enable me to maintain my movement. I can’t recommend Romy highly enough xx
Thank you so much, I feel like I have brand new feet, first time I’ve visited and Romy removed all my hard skin and gave me great after care advice, can’t wait to visit again already!
Podiatrists are tertiary educated clinicians, trained to assess, manage and treat conditions affecting the foot and ankle. Our aim is to improve patient mobility, independence and quality of life by using evidence-based treatment and advice.
If you have any issues that involve your foot or ankle, such as a sports injury, ingrown toenail, or problems with your skin, you should contact a podiatrist. A podiatrist is a specialist in the management and treatment of foot and ankle pathologies.
A podiatrist can remove the ingrown portion of the nail, and if ingrown nails are a chronic problem, your podiatrist can carry out a procedure to permanently prevent ingrown toenails.
A podiatrist can usually diagnose the cause of foot pain, offer advice and come up with a treatment plan.
All routine podiatry management is perfectly safe to have whilst pregnant.
I am currently on annual leave to get married! I will return on Monday 26th February, when all enquiries will be responded to.
Thanks for your patience,
Romy
