Accordingly, recurrent ingrown toenails often become symp-tomatic 3 to 6 months after an initial avulsion procedure.The toenail is supported by the nail unit (Figure 1): the proximal nail fold, the nail bed, the nail matrix, and the hyponychium.he toenail gives stability to the distal soft tissue of the toe, which frequently becomes elevated following ablation of the nail. As a new nail grows outward, it often impinges against the soft tissue, leading to nail deformity or an ingrown toenail.
