  Sandy M. asked:

  My son has an in-grown toenail that looks infected. I have tried to treat it, to prevent him from having to go to the Dr. Unfortunately, I have not been successful. I've heard it's extremely painful to have the procedure done. I can only imagine how painful it must be. Bless his heart; This morning it hurt, just for the bed sheet to drape over on it. I need help finding a Podiatrist that will numb the toe BEFORE administering the shot. Does anyone know &/or used a doctor that will numb it first? I appreciate it.

  Sandy. We use Dean Kostakos. North Fulton podiatry. 770-346-7500. He's awesome. I actually see him as well as my sisters. I have a Morton neuroma in my foot. It's a mass around a nerve. I've had two shots and am doing better. Colin's toe had f lared up again and I called to see if they could see him. They had him to come with me and worked him in. With ingrown toenails, once it is cut out there is also medicine put in to inhibit the nail from growing back. So once it's done it will be fine. Basically your nail is bigger than the toe can handle. Dr Kostakos is near north Fulton hospital.

  Thom A. asked:

  Atlanta peeps! Anyone know a GOOD podiatrist? I'm beginning to think the one I'm going to is a quack! Feet are getting worse. I've worn orthopedic inserts for years. But the new ones are causing me more harm than good. And the doc is not to inclined to re-do them.
