Toenail Removal Surgery Cost in Mumbai

Generally, toenail removal surgery cost is covered by health insurance when the surgery is deemed medically necessary. If the condition is not symptomatic and an individual is getting treatment (surgical or non-surgical), the insurance company may not approve the claim. Therefore, it is always advised to talk to an insurance provider to determine the extent of coverage and other terms and conditions of the insurance policy. 

Pristyn Care understands that cost is one of the most important things patients consider while getting surgical treatments. We address this concern and provide cost-effective treatment to patients through the following services:

• Free pick and drop service to and from the hospital on the day of surgery. 
• Assistance with insurance paperwork and claim process to make the treatment cashless. 
• Multiple payment options for flexibility to choose a convenient payment mode. 
• No-cost EMI service to divide the treatment expense into smaller installments. 
• Multiple post-surgery follow-up consultations with the doctor without additional charges.

We also assign a dedicated care coordinator to the patient who assists them with all treatment-related formalities and ensures their journey is smooth and hassle-free.

The doctor might suggest the patient for toenail removal surgery if the ingrown portion of the affected nail is firmly embedded in the skin of the patient or if they have developed an infection. Signs of infection include swelling, pus, warmth, and redness in your toe. In such cases, the doctor recommends removing the ingrown part of the nail.

If left untreated, an ingrown toenail can get worse and cause various complications, such as the skin around the ingrown toenail can become infected, leading to pain, redness, and swelling. Ingrown toenails often cause chronic pain and discomfort and can also lead to foot deformation.

If you had a partial toenail removal, where only a portion of the nail or the nail matrix was removed, you may be able to return to work relatively soon, often within a day or two. If the entire toenail, including the nail matrix, was removed, the recovery time may be a bit longer.

In general, the recurrence rate for ingrown toenails after surgery is relatively low, ranging from 5% to 20%. However, the risk of recurrence may be higher in certain cases, such as when the underlying nail bed is abnormally shaped or when there is a chronic condition, such as diabetes, that affects the healing process. To minimize the risk of recurrence, it is important to follow proper postoperative care instructions and practice proper toenail care.
