Description
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to ingrown nail correction devices, and in particular, to a detachable ingrown nail correction device.
Background
Ingrown nails are a clinically common nail disease in which the nail edges or side corners of nails (including nails) are embedded into the nail groove skin, causing enlargement of nail folds, and secondary infections can cause paronychia with persistent pain. The weight of the patient is difficult to bear, so that walking is influenced, and the daily life quality of the patient is further influenced. Ingrown nails often occur on one side of the nail and, in severe cases, on both sides. Most ingrown nails occur in the hallux toenails of the foot. The pathogenesis of ingrown nails is mainly 1. Mechanical injuries such as extrusion, collision and the like lead the side edges of the deck to be closer to soft tissues of the nail sulcus to form ingrown nails, which are mostly seen in young students; 2. improper putting on the shoes and tight putting on the shoes are mostly caused by the fact that the toe is extruded by the high-heeled shoes with the tips, the lateral edges of the toenails are pressed to grow into soft tissues of the nail sulcus, and the soft tissues are rubbed to cause swelling, so that the ingrown nails are aggravated; 3. too short and too deep for manicuring, the lateral edges of the manicuring are not cut, and part of the positions are too short and too deep for manicuring, so that the nail pierces the soft tissues in the nail sulcus like a hard spike; 4. standing for a long time; 5. diseases of deformed nails caused by thick nails, onychomycosis, congenital nail eversion, and the like; 6. genetic factors. If left alone, the patients worsen, and the periungual red swelling is secondary to granulation tissue hyperplasia, so that the lateral nail fold is hypertrophic to cover the deck, the ingrown nails are aggravated, and then paronychia is further aggravated, so that the whole finger or toe fester is purulent, and the pain of the patients is hard, and the daily life work is seriously affected. According to clinical manifestations, ingrown nails can be divided into stage 4. Stage I (inflammatory phase) is manifested by mild erythema, edema, tenderness, side nail folds not elevated or covering the nail margin; stage IIa (abscess stage) is manifested by erythema, edema, pain exacerbation, hyperesthesia, exudation and/or infection, lateral nail fold higher than the deck but less than or equal to 3mm or transverse covering of the deck but less than or equal to 3mm in width; stage IIb (abscess stage) and stage IIa are similar, but the lateral nail folds are hypertrophic >3mm above the deck or the transverse coverage deck width >3mm; stage III (proliferative stage) is manifested by granulation tissue hyperplasia, lateral nail fold hypertrophy, and widely covering both sides of the deck; stage IV (distal proliferative stage) is manifested by severe bending deformity of the deck, severe proliferation and hypertrophy of lateral and distal nail folds, and extensive coverage of the deck by the proliferative tissue.
The treatment of ingrown nails includes two broad categories, conservative and surgical. Surgery is mainly directed to ingrown nails above stage IIb, and is divided into nail plate and/or nail matrix excision and periungual soft tissue excision. Excision of the nail matrix can result in permanent narrowing of the nail plate. The excision of the simple nail plate or soft tissue can only temporarily treat ingrown nails, cannot correct the bending property of the whole embedded nails, and is easy to relapse. Therefore, the best scheme for treating the ingrown nails is to use the ingrown nails correcting device early (before the IIB period) to correct the ingrown nails by adopting a conservative therapy, and simultaneously actively treat paronychia, so that the ingrown nails are prevented from being aggravated.
Some existing inground devices require wrapping the toe with a strap and perforating the strap with a binding cord. If used for a long period of time, the straps wrapped around the toe end are prone to ischemic necrosis at the distal end of the toe end. Still some current inground nail orthotic devices are provided with a plurality of lock sleeves and screw rods, and the installation is more loaded down with trivial details during the use. Other existing ingrown nail correcting devices cannot apply enough correcting force to ingrown nails, so that the correcting effect is insufficient.
Accordingly, there is a need to propose a new technology to solve one or more of the problems of the prior art described above.

In some embodiments, since the clip has a height and can be used while wearing the shoe, the upper can apply a continuous downward pressure to the clip that can achieve a stronger corrective force and a better corrective effect on the ingrown nail with the pull of the drawstring against the ingrown nail. Meanwhile, as the usable time is prolonged due to the fact that the shoes can be worn, the correction course can be effectively shortened. The nail-inserted correction device in the prior art lacks the continuous downward pressure, so that the correction force is insufficient or the correction effect is poor. Furthermore, the devices of the prior art cannot be worn while wearing shoes, and thus the usable time is greatly limited.
In some embodiments, the additional layer is attached to the outer surface of the shackle and comprises a soft material capable of absorbing or storing liquid, thereby simultaneously protecting the skin near the ingrown nail or treating paronychia lesions while correcting the ingrown nail. The convenient-to-install and detach characteristics of the present disclosure make it more convenient to change the medicine for treatment in paronychia acute abscess stage caused by ingrown nails. The prior art lacks such devices that allow simultaneous correction and protection or treatment.

In some embodiments, the clamping post 40 is cylindrical, including cylindrical, square, or any other cylindrical shape. Further, the clamping post 40 may be straight or curved.
In some embodiments, the post 40 has a recess formed therein, as shown in FIG. 6. The groove can function to prevent the pull strap 20 from being detached from the clip 40 in the case where the clip 40 penetrates into the hole of the pull strap 20. In some embodiments, the post 40 has a shape that is curved toward one side of the adhesive tape 30, as shown in fig. 7. In some embodiments, the top end of the post 40 extends toward one side of the adhesive tape 30, in which case the post 40 has an approximately "7" shape, as shown in fig. 8. In some embodiments, the top ends of the posts 40 extend toward both sides of the adhesive tape 30, in which case the posts 40 have an approximate "T" shape. In some embodiments, the cross-sectional area of the top end of the post 40 is Yu Kazhu greater than the cross-sectional area of the other portions of the post 40, e.g., the post 40 has a nail-like shape.
The various possible geometries of the post 40 described above can function to prevent the pull strap 20 from being disengaged from the post 40 in the event that the post 40 penetrates into the aperture of the pull strap 20. The shape or structure of the clip 40 is not limited to these shapes or structures, but may have any other shape or structure that prevents the pull tape 20 from being detached from the clip 40. For example, the post 40 may have threads, snaps, clips, etc. formed thereon.
The number of the clamping posts 40 on the adhesive tape 30 may be only one or more. In some embodiments, the card posts 40 may be arranged in multiple rows, with each row of card posts 40 including one or more card posts arranged in a longitudinal direction (the vertical direction in fig. 5). In fig. 5, three rows of posts 40 are illustrated, each row having three posts 40. The number and arrangement of the clip columns 40 are not limited in any way as long as a part or all of the clip columns 40 can penetrate into a part or all of the holes 21 of the draw tape 20.
In some embodiments, the height of the posts may be 1 to 5 millimeters. In some embodiments, the height of the posts may be 2 to 4 millimeters. However, the height of the clip is not limited thereto.
In some embodiments, the lower surface of the adhesive tape 30 has a glue layer so that the lower surface can adhere to a person's deck. In some embodiments, the release paper is attached to the adhesive layer, and the release paper can avoid weakening the adhesive of the adhesive layer or being attached to other objects. When the adhesive tape 30 is required to be used, the release paper may be torn off from the adhesive tape 30.
In some embodiments, the lower surface of the adhesive tape 30 may not have a glue layer, but may be adhered to the deck coated with adhesive.
In some embodiments, the adhesive tape 30 may be trimmed using tools (e.g., scissors, etc.) to adjust the length and width, shape, etc. of the adhesive tape 30 so that the shape and/or size of the adhesive tape 30 fits on the individual's deck. Fig. 9 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the ingrown nail orthotic device 1 of some embodiments of the present disclosure in actual use, and fig. 10 is a schematic top view thereof. In actual use of the ingrown nail orthotic device 1, as shown in fig. 9, the adhesive tape 30 is adhered to the deck 50, and the shackle 10 is slipped over and hooked onto the ingrown nail side of the person's deck 50 (right side of deck 50 in fig. 9 and 10). One or more holes of the drawstring 20 are then nested into one or more of the posts 40 of the adhesive tape 30 so that the drawstring 20 is secured relative to the deck 50 and an upward corrective pulling force is applied to the ingrown side of the deck 50 by the hitch 10. When not in use, the drawstring 20 is simply disengaged from the clip 40, the shackle 10 is removed from the ingrown nail side, and the adhesive tape 30 is torn away from the deck 50.
In fig. 9, 3 rows of holes 21 and 3 rows of posts 40 are shown as an example. However, in fig. 10, there are 5 rows of holes 21 and 3 rows of posts 40, as an example, with 3 rows of holes 21 obscured from view by posts 40. The extra two rows of holes 21 shown in fig. 10 may be used to pull the drawstring 20 to the left and at least partially replace the holes 21 that nest in the clamp post 40 to achieve the desired tension in the drawstring 20 when further tightening of the drawstring 20 is desired (e.g., when after a period of use, the deck 50 becomes flatter due to corrective action and the drawstring 20 becomes slightly slack).
The adhesive tape 30 and the clamping post 40 thereon may be made of any suitable material as long as the adhesive tape 30 is capable of adhering to a deck and providing a sufficient fixing force and the clamping post 40 is capable of providing a sufficient pulling force to the pull tape 20.
As shown in fig. 10, the loop 10 extends along the ingrown nail at the ingrown nail side, and the ingrown nail is inserted into the loop 10, so that a relatively uniform upward pulling force can be applied to the ingrown nail in the extending direction of the entire ingrown nail, thereby achieving a correcting effect of correcting the excessively curved ingrown nail to be relatively flat. Meanwhile, since the shackle 10 has a certain contact area with the deck, or at least makes line contact, not point contact, the pulling force of the shackle 10 acts on a large range of ingrown nails, so that the deck is not easily damaged. Further, such a hook 10 having a certain width is not liable to damage soft tissues such as the skin of a human body.
In some embodiments, prior to the insertion of the hook 10 into the ingrown nail, a tool having a tapered or diamond-shaped front end may be used to pry up the distal end of the ingrown nail (the distal side of the toe or finger) and then insert the hook 10 into the ingrown nail from the distal side, and by this process, gradually insert the hook 10 into the proximal side of the ingrown nail (nearer to the arm side).
Compared with the prior art, the mounting and using method and the dismounting method of the ingrown nail correcting device 1 are very simple and convenient. Moreover, in some embodiments, since the tension (i.e., pulling force) of the pull strap 20 may be easily adjusted, a sufficient corrective force can be continuously achieved without having to replace or disassemble the ingrown nail corrective device 1.
In some embodiments, when the ingrown nail orthotic device 1 is applied to the toes, the shoe may be worn with the ingrown nail orthotic device 1, and the upper may apply downward continuous pressure to the clip 40, which may ultimately act on the deck 50 through the adhesive tape 30, thereby producing a combined corrective action on the deck 50, along with the upward corrective pulling force applied by the pull tape 20 to the ingrown nail side of the deck 50 through the hitch 10. Thereby further enhancing the correction effect and greatly shortening the correction time. The nail insertion correcting device using the lock sleeve and the screw rod in the prior art cannot be used when wearing shoes. The ingrown nail orthotic device of the present disclosure greatly extends the time available compared to such prior art.
In some embodiments, the adhesive tape 30 may be adhered to a central portion of the deck 50 (e.g., as shown in fig. 10). In this case, the downward pressure applied by the upper to the clip 40 may be close to in a vertically downward direction, so that the corrective effect can be further enhanced.
In some embodiments, the ingrown nail orthotic device 1 may further comprise a cover layer (not shown) that covers the clip 40 of the adhesive tape 30 in the event that the clip 40 penetrates into the aperture 21 of the pull tape 20, thereby providing an aesthetic, covering effect. In some embodiments, the cover layer can function to protect the inner surfaces of the shoe and sock in the case of the ingrown nail orthotic device 1 being used while wearing the shoe.
Fig. 11 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a shackle 10 of a ingrown nail orthotic device 1, according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 11, an additional layer 12 is further attached to the outer surface of the hook 10, the additional layer 12 comprising at least one of the group consisting of: gauze, hydrogel bodies, absorbent cotton, nonwoven fabrics, sponges, fibrous bodies, and other soft materials capable of absorbing or storing liquids. When the ingrown nail correcting device 1 is actually used, the additional layer 12 can be contacted with the skin of a nail sulcus wound of a patient caused by ingrown nails, so that the wound which is not contacted by the pure external medicine can be achieved, and the skin of the wound can be effectively protected or pain and inflammation of an affected part can be relieved. In some embodiments, the material of the additional layer 12 may absorb body fluids exuding from the affected area, thereby helping to alleviate swelling and inflammation. In some embodiments, the additional layer 12 may contain an antimicrobial and/or analgesic agent in the material so that the nail correction device 1 corrects the nail while simultaneously treating paronychia lesions, thereby further accelerating the patient's recovery and rapidly relieving the swelling of the nail sulcus.
In the above description in connection with fig. 9 and 10, a case where the nail plate has a ingrown nail on one side of the deck is described as an example. Obviously, the ingrown nail correcting device 1 of the present disclosure can also be applied to the case of having ingrown nails on both sides of the deck. For this case, only one draw tape 20 and one hook 10 need be added. At this time, one draw tape 20 and one hook 10 are applied to the left-side rule, and the other draw tape 20 and the other hook 10 are applied to the right-side rule. In some embodiments, only one clip 40 may be formed on the adhesive tape 30, and both the hole on the left side pull tape 20 and the hole on the right side pull tape 20 may be nested in the one clip 40. In some embodiments, at least two clamping posts 40 may be formed on the adhesive tape 30, and the holes on the left side pull tape 20 and the holes on the right side pull tape 20 may share the at least two clamping posts 40, or different clamping posts 40 may be used, respectively.
In some embodiments, where a groove or other securing means is formed on the clip 40, a single clip 40 is fully capable of securing two pull straps 20 simultaneously. In some embodiments, grooves on the clamping post 40 are formed at both left and right sides of the clamping post 40, thereby enabling easy simultaneous fixing of the pull bands 20 at both sides. In some embodiments, grooves on the clamp post 40 are formed at different heights of the clamp post 40, thereby enabling convenient simultaneous securement of the pull straps 20 on both sides.
In some embodiments, at least two of the clamping posts 40 are formed on the adhesive tape 30, at least one of the clamping posts 40 having a shape bent toward one side of the adhesive tape 30 or a tip end thereof extending toward one side of the adhesive tape 30, and at least one of the clamping posts 40 having a shape bent toward the other side of the adhesive tape 30 or a tip end thereof extending toward the other side of the adhesive tape 30. Fig. 12 shows the case of two clamping posts 40 having tips extending in opposite directions. In this case, the hole in the left side draw tape 20 may be nested in the left side clamping post 40, and the hole in the right side draw tape 20 may be nested in the right side clamping post 40.
In some embodiments, the adhesive tape 30 has at least two rows of the card posts 40 arranged in a longitudinal direction, each row of the card posts having at least one card post 40, wherein the leftmost row of the card posts 40 has a top end extending toward the right or has a shape curved toward the right, and the rightmost row of the card posts 40 has a top end extending toward the left or has a shape curved toward the left. In this case, the pull tape 20 is formed with at least one row of holes arranged in the longitudinal direction, each row of holes having at least one hole. At this time, when the nail insertion correction device 1 of the present disclosure is applied to double-sided nail insertion, at least one row of holes of the left side pulling tape 20 may be fitted into the right-facing clip 40 on the adhesive tape 30, and at least one row of holes of the right side pulling tape 20 may be fitted into the left-facing clip 40 on the adhesive tape 30. This makes it possible to fix the pull tapes 20 on both sides at the same time.
