This account concerns a young patient with changes beside the right big toenail. The original narrative linked them to nail-trimming habits and pressure from uncomfortable shoes.
The course described in the records
Causes and effects of the problem: The patient had been trimming his nails incorrectly. Combined with uncomfortable footwear, this caused inflammation of the nail folds around his right big toe. Over time, tissue remodelling and overgrowth developed, requiring podology treatment.
Feetbuster prepared the nails for surgery carried out in cooperation with Podomedical in Myszków. The account also mentions a titanium brace, but gives no complete schedule or long-term outcome.
