How do you get rid of ankle pain after surgery?
I would be evaluated by the surgeon or get a second opinion if there is persistent pain after ankle surgery. Depending on the type of surgery you might be at risk for DVT (blood clot), infection, malunion, nonunion, etc. Hopefully this helps. Daniel Patty, DPM READ MORE
How do ingrown toenails get infected?
Ingrown toenails get infected when the nail penetrates through the skin barrier and then bacteria that lives on our skin are able to get into the wound, which causes the wound to get red and infected. This will likely require a simple procedure to remove a small section of the nail that is causing the infection. If this is a recurrent problem, then I recommend, after removing the small section of nail, applying Phenol, which is an acid, that will kill the cells that form the nail in that small section that was removed and make it so it doesn't return. This can be done in clinic and typically takes about 10 minutes total. Our clinics give antibacterial/anti-fungal foot soaks after the procedure to help with healing as well. Hope this helps!
