Nail Hypertrophied

A hypertrophic nail is a pathological change in the appearance of the nail, in which it increases in size and changes its shape. This can be caused by various reasons, such as poor circulation, fungal diseases, nail injuries, etc.

Changes to the nail can lead to soreness, decreased function, and an increased risk of infection. A hypertrophic nail can cause discomfort and difficulty performing everyday tasks such as getting dressed and caring for your nails.

Treatment of a hypertrophied nail should be aimed at eliminating the cause of this condition. Depending on the cause of the hypertrophy, your doctor may recommend various treatment methods, such as medications, physical therapy, surgery, or a combination of these methods.

In most cases, hypertrophic nails do not pose a threat to health, but they can lead to cosmetic defects and create problems when performing normal household activities.
