  • Nail Problems
    Nail Problems Components of the Nail Congenital Disorders Racket nails, characterized by a broad short thumb nail, is the commonest congenital nail defect, dominantly inherited and seen in 1% of the population. The basic abnormality is shortness of the underlying terminal phalanx. In the yellow nail syndrome, the nail changes begin in adult life, against a background of hypoplasia of the lymphatic system. Peripheral edema is usually present and pleural effusions may occur. The nails grow very slowly and become thickened and greenish-yellow; their surface is smooth but they are over curved from side to side. Acquired Nail Changes Beau's Lines Transverse lines or grooves in nail. Causes include any severe systemic illness or medications (chemotherapy), which affects growth of the nail matrix. Clinically: The grooves or lines move distally; the distance from the nail fold lets one assess the time of trauma. Onycholysis Separation of nail from nail bed. Causes include psoriasis, dermatitis, fungal infections; medications (photo-onycholysis from tetracyclines or psoralens), thyroid disease; rarely inherited. Idiopathic onycholysis is most common among women; painless separation of nail without apparent cause. Typically, the distal third separates and underlying nail bed becomes darker and thickened. Therapy: Cut nail very short to reduce leverage encouraging separation, apply antifungal solution. Usually self-limited process. Ingrown Nail Penetration of nail plate into tissue of lateral nail fold. Almost always involves great toes. Causes include congenital malformation of nail (pincer nail), improper trimming, and tightly fitting shoes. Clinically: Distorted nail with swelling, pain, and granulation tissue along the lateral nail fold. Therapy: Mild cases: Eliminate pressure, trim nail; topical antiseptics as foot soaks or on small piece of cotton wool pushed under affected nail.

  • Ingrown Nail/Paronychia Referral Guide: Podiatry Referral Page 1 of 1 Diagnosis/Definition
    Ingrown Nail/Paronychia Referral Guide: Podiatry Referral Page 1 of 1 Diagnosis/Definition: Redness, warmth, tenderness and exudate coming from the areas adjacent to the nail plate. Initial Diagnosis and Management: History and physical examination. In chronic infection appropriate radiographic (foot or toe series to rule out distal phalanx osteomyelitis) and laboratory evaluation (CBC and ESR). Ongoing Management and Objectives: Primary care should consist of Epsom salt soaks, or soapy water, and antibiotics for ten days. If Epsom salt soaks and antibiotics are ineffective, the primary care provider has the following options: Reevaluate and refer to podiatry. Perform temporary avulsion/I&D. Perform permanent avulsion followed by chemical cautery (89% Phenol or 10% NaOH application – 3 applications maintained for 30 second intervals, alcohol dilution between each application). Aftercare for all of the above is continued soaks, daily tip cleaning and bandage application. Indications for Specialty Care Referral: After the reevaluation at the end of the antibiotic period the primary care provider can refer the patient to Podiatry for avulsion/ surgical care if they do not feel comfortable performing the procedure themselves. The patient should be given a prescription for antibiotics renewal and orders to continue soaks until avulsion can be performed. Test(s) to Prepare for Consult: Test(s) Consultant May Need To Do: Criteria for Return to Primary Care: After completion of the surgical procedure, patients will be returned to the primary care provider for follow-up. Revision History: Created Revised Disclaimer: Adherence to these guidelines will not ensure successful treatment in every situation. Further, these guidelines should not be considered inclusive of all accepted methods of care or exclusive of other methods of care reasonably directed to obtaining the same results.

Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida 33612-9497 ABSTRACT Malassezia furfur (MF) is a lipophilic yeast which can be found as a member of the indigenous microbiota of human skin. In immunocompro­ mised transplant patients, MF can cause a distinctive folliculitis which is a clinical look-alike to Candida folliculitis, the latter of more potentially devastating significance. Recovery of MF in culture is dependent upon the addition to culture media of an exogenous source of fatty acids, such as olive oil. The addition of an extra Sabourauds plate with an olive oil overlay to the routine set of media used to inoculate all skin biopsy specimens in order to detect MF is labor-intensive and not cost-effective. Thus, MF may not be isolated in cases of MF folliculitis unless the clinical microbiology laboratory is put on alert by the clinical suspicions of the attending physi­ cian, or by histopathologic findings suggestive of folliculitis revealed by review of surgical pathology slides.

  • Ingrown Toenails
    POST-OP NAIL CARE The day following the procedure, remove the bandage and begin soaking the toe for 10-15 minutes at least once daily. If the bandage does not come off easily, soak in warm water with one (1) tablespoon Epson Salts. As you soak, use a cotton tipped applicator (Q-tip) to clean the nail groove. Also, gently pull the skin edges back from the area where the nail was removed to be sure that any draining is released. After drying the toes, apply a light amount of triple antibiotic ointment (Neosporin) or other topical anesthetic, and light gauze or a bandage (Band-aid). Gauze is best to absorb INGROWN drainage.
