Is a NailEase brace painful to apply and wear?
NailEase is a painless treatment for ingrown toenails. No surgery or painful medical procedures are involved. However, during application, the NailEase brace must be lightly pressed onto the toenail for a few seconds while the special glue dries. Although this requires only slight pressure, it may cause discomfort while the pressure is being applied if your toenail is inflamed and highly sensitive. There may also be some slight discomfort immediately after the brace is applied if the brace lifts one or both outer edges of the toenail up too strongly. This discomfort is rare, but can be quickly alleviated by reducing the brace’s tension, which is accomplished by thinning the brace with the emery board supplied in the kit.
