That depends. In some cases, new braces should be reapplied at intervals of two, six, or 12 months, or whenever discomfort is felt. Eventually braces either grow out with the nail and are trimmed off, or become separated from the nail and fall off. (Bonding time varies widely between three weeks and three months.) If continued NailEase treatment is needed, simply apply the new brace in the same way you applied the first one.

Not at all. If for any reason you should want to remove a NailEase brace before it grows out with your nail, just file it off, or remove it with an adhesive softener or nail polish remover.

When the drops are applied as directed onto the toenail, the fungus is no longer able to survive, but the nail is still damaged. The fungus can live for a long time under the nail, which is why it is important to apply the drops to the nail bed and file away the thickened nail so the drops can penetrate to underneath the nail. Once the fungus is no longer active, the nail can grow out and the fungus is not present to attach itself to the new nail.

The time frame you have to wear your brace depends on type and extent of injury, as well as Dr. Stanley’s assessment at follow up visits.

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.

ingrown toenail occurs most often on the big toes. There are other factors but the most common cause is that the nail was cut back too short and starts to grow into the skin around the nail border. The nail becomes trapped in the skin and eventually may cut the skin where the leading edge of the nail is advancing due to normal nail growth. The nail grows deeper and deeper into the skin and can't grow out. It is even thought that there is a family predisposition to having ingrown nails.

Ingrown nails, a common toenail impairment, are nails whose corners or sides dig painfully into the soft tissue of nail grooves, often leading to irritation, redness and swelling. Frequently caused by improperly trimmed nails, the best way to avoid ingrown nails is to cut nails straight across, slightly longer than the end of the toe.

The brace is a metal support that fits on the back side of the basket to help support the basket if the basket does not fit well or if your dog is over 15 pounds. It helps to distribute the dog's weight, or the weight of whatever you're carrying, keeping steering from becoming a problem. You will need a longer-than-normal (16+ inches) back rack as the basket is 19" long. If you do not have a longer back rack to mount your basket, I have them available for $18.95.

Usually, the crutches are used for 2-3 weeks, while the brace is worn for around 4 weeks. In any case, consult directly with your doctor if you have any doubts.

If a brace has been prescribed or recommended, it is wise to go to a professional establishment that specialises in medical aids or rehabilitation articles. Some physiotherapists sell braces and they can also give you good advice. Choosing the right size and type of brace requires additional know-how. Always consult an expert for this kind of specialised work.

Yes, a brace can be worn while asleep when this is desirable for a certain treatment. However, it is advised to loosen the bands somewhat to avoid the risk that blood vessels are pinched off.

Generally it takes 6-8 weeks for bones to heal and that’s how long you’ll be in a cast or a brace. This depends where the fracture is, the individual bone, and the amount of energy involved to create the fracture.

Only when you're taking part in any sort of strenuous activity, or whenever you feel like it. after the first year, you probably won't have to wear it at all, unless you feel particularly at risk (say, playing beach volleyball or something similar). but during normal activities, no. you're ok as is.

You will need to verify this information with both the company providing your brace or CPM machine as well as with your insurance company.
