THE IMPORTANCE OF PROPER NAIL CARE
Did you know that improper nail trimming can increase the risk of infection - particularly for individuals living with diabetes,neuropathy, or circulatory conditions?
The cuticle and hyponychium are two important membranes of the nail unit. The cuticle forms a seal at the base of the nail plate, helping to prevent bacteria and pathogens from entering from above. The hyponychium, located beneath the free edge of the nail, provides protection to the underlying nail bed.
Cutting or disrupting these protective tissues can create an entry point for infection. Nursing foot care emphasizes safe technique, sterile instrumentation, and clinical assessment to preserve tissue integrity and reduce preventable complications.
