Abstract
We provide foot and nail care services to outpatients at our dermatology clinic in Saiseikai Kawaguchi General Hospital. Patients with dermatological foot problems such as onychogryphosis, onychomycosis, and ingrown nails are recommended by dermatologists to obtain foot and nail care services performed by a specially trained nurse. These services include a footbath, foot massage, nail clipping, and corn and nail filing. If ingrown nails exist, a small piece of cloth is placed under the nail edge.
