AM I A CANDIDATE FOR
INGROWN TOENAIL REMOVAL?
Not all ingrown toenails need removal, but it may be necessary if you have recurring ingrown toenails, at-home treatments have been unsuccessful, or if you have a medical condition that may cause complications from an infected toe.
To find out if you need ingrown toenail removal patients are encouraged to contact us and schedule a consultation. The doctor will examine you to verify your eligibility and get started on your treatment plan.
Ultrasound benefits
X-rays are frequently used in orthopedic medicine to assess and diagnose a variety of foot and ankle issues. They are often needed in situations such as:
Accurate Diagnosis
The MRI offers high-resolution imaging that allows healthcare providers to precisely diagnose various lower extremity conditions, including foot and ankle injuries, ligament tears, and joint disorders.
non-surgical
options
Detailed insights from the MRI often support non-surgical treatments like physical therapy, custom orthotics, or minimally invasive procedures—promoting quicker recovery and better long-term results.
Optimized Surgical Care
For patients who require surgery, the MRI supports both pre-surgical planning and post-operative monitoring, helping to ensure a smoother recovery and more effective rehabilitation.
RESULTS FROM INGROWN TOENAIL REMOVAL
YOU WILL IMMEDIATELY NOTICE THE CHANGE IN YOUR TOE AFTER YOUR PROCEDURE.
A full toenail removal will take several months up to a year for the toenail to grow back. Ingrown toenail surgery is effective and will prevent recurring pain and infection. However, if you wear a certain kind of shoe or participate in activities that create pressure on your toe, you can get an ingrown toenail again. If you recognize the signs early enough, you should be able to treat them without surgery.
ULTRASOUND IMAGinG FAQs
If ongoing or intense foot pain isn’t improving with basic treatments, your doctor might suggest an MRI to get a clearer look at what’s causing the problem.
Yes, a foot MRI can help identify nerve-related issues like neuropathy or nerve compression. It provides detailed images that reveal the location and extent of nerve damage, offering important information for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.If your MRI doesn’t show any clear issues but foot pain continues, it doesn’t mean the problem isn’t real. Your provider may explore other diagnostic options, such as additional imaging, nerve testing, or a referral to a specialist, to get to the root of your symptoms and guide the next steps in treatment.
The cost of an MRI depends on factors like the imaging area, your insurance coverage, and the clinic location. For specific pricing details and payment options, contact Empire Podiatry directly.

Who Is a Candidate for Ultrasound Imaging?
Ultrasound imaging is a valuable diagnostic tool for individuals with orthopedic conditions affecting the lower extremities, such as foot and ankle injuries, ligament tears, arthritis, tendonitis, and joint disorders.

Patients in NYC and Manhattan considering ultrasound imaging should speak with their healthcare provider about any existing health concerns or allergies to ensure the procedure is appropriate and effective.
