Document Summary
Kinesiology 2236b lecture 15: foot and ankle problems 2. 0. Common in distance running and squash secondary to deceleration. Toe hits end of toe box and causes disruption in nail/toe bed. Also can be acute drop a weight, step on, etc. Need to evacuate blood to decrease pressure. Can be done with a sterile heated paper clip. Press into nail blood will release. Manual pressure on nail to evacuate all blood band aid. May have to do a few days to get it all. Only need clean paperclip the next day (no need to heat) New nail will grow underneath and push old nail off. Usually nail grows into the lateral nail fold. Usually results from lateral pressure of poorly fitting shoes, improper trimming, or repeated trauma. Not a problem with the nail, but tissue being pushed over the nail. Tissue could push over nail and get irritated. Under your nail bed is a sterile matrix.
