Accessory toenails, also known as supernumerary toenails, are a rare condition that occurs when an individual has an extra nail growing next to or near their big toenail. This condition is congenital, meaning it is present at birth and can be inherited genetically.
Accessory toenails are typically small in size, and may appear anywhere from the base to the tip of the big toe. They may be misshapen or irregular in appearance, and may be prone to ingrown toenails or infection. However, most people with accessory toenails do not experience any complications or symptoms.
Treatment for accessory toenails is usually not necessary unless they cause discomfort or pain. In some cases, removal of the nail may be recommended to prevent further complications. It is important to consult a healthcare professional if you notice any unusual growths on your toenails or experience pain or discomfort in your feet.
