Removal of a subungual hematoma is a must if the pain is severe and the hematoma impedes daily function. Ignoring the problem can lead to further complications, such as infection and even loss of the nail. Hematoma decompression is possible up to 24 hours after the injury occurs!

When is it a good idea to go to a podiatrist?

Treatment of subungual hematoma removal in our office in Zielona Gora is fast, safe and effective. During the visit, the podiatrist will assess the size of the hematoma and decide on the most appropriate method of removal. Typically, a small puncture of the nail plate is made, allowing the accumulated blood to drain and immediately relieve pressure, which brings relief to the patient.

The procedure is carried out under sterile conditions, which minimizes the risk of infection. After the hematoma is removed, the podiatrist can recommend appropriate care measures and instructions for further care of the nail to promote its recovery and avoid further problems.

How does the removal of subungual hematoma proceed?

A subungual hematoma is a pool of blood that forms under the nail as a result of damage to the blood vessels under the nail plate. It manifests as a dark discoloration of the nail and severe pain, especially when there is a large amount of blood pooled under the plate. Hemangioma can occur on both fingers and toes, but most commonly affects toenails, which are more prone to injury from wearing tight shoes or intense physical activity.
