Thickened “rams horn” toenails are distorted, curled nails that can cause pain and discomfort. Common causes include aging, fungal infections, trauma, poor circulation, and ill-fitting shoes. Symptoms include thick, brittle nails, discoloration, and difficulty trimming. Regular foot care and hygiene are key to healthy nails.

Barefoot shoes mimic the natural barefoot experience with a wide toe box, thin flexible sole, and zero heel drop. They can strengthen foot muscles, improve posture, and increase sensory awareness. However, people with foot conditions, diabetes, or poor circulation should be cautious. Transitioning slowly and choosing suitable surfaces is key to avoiding injury. Consult a foot care nurse for personalized guidance on whether barefoot shoes are right for you.

If you’re new to medical foot care, this guide explains what happens during a professional appointment. You’ll start with a thorough health and foot assessment, followed by expert nail and skin care treatments like trimming, callus reduction, and fungal nail management. Your foot care nurse will then offer personalized advice on daily care, footwear, and when to return. With sterilized tools and gentle care, you’ll leave with healthier, more comfortable feet ready to support your active life.
