Application of Modified Parts of Nail Extraction for Ingrown Toenail with Paronychia in Emergency Treatment

Objective: To explore a therapy for outpatients with ingrown toenail and paronychia by comparing to operative time,recovery time and the recurrence rate. Methods: 153 cases were divided into 2 groups of the modified parts of nail extraction and ordinary nail extraction for ingrown toenail with paronychia, and compared to operative time,recovery time and the recurrence rate. Results: The average operative time,the recovery time and the recurrence rate in ordinary nail extraction were 3 ± 0. 53 minutes,8 ± 2. 33 days and 68. 63% respectively; in modified parts of nail extraction were 5 ± 0. 48 minutes,5 ± 1. 23 days and 4. 90% respectively. Conclusion: The modified partial nail extraction is simple,less invasive,and quicker recovery and lower recurrence rate,which is worth promoting in outpatients of emergency.
