Zlobina Ekaterina Aleksandrovna  (Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Education «South-Ural State Medical University» of the Ministry of Healthcare of the Russian Federation)

Ingrown toenail is one of the most common problems in outpatient surgery in terms of recurrence rate, duration of follow-up, and number of treatment failures. In surgical practice, patients with an ingrown toenail of the first toe are more common, due to anatomical prerequisites and lifestyle features. The article presents a clinical case of a patient with an ingrown toenail of the second toe and an example of achieving sustainable recovery. The article evaluates a conservative method of treating an ingrown nail of the second toe in outpatient surgery. This non-invasive approach is effective even with atypical localization of the pathological process besides it minimizes pain from treatment.
