Case Study 2: Part 5 Treatment

To see how the 'short-term' management plan was implemented the following screens present a series of videos of the clinical techniques used on the day of the treatment. Each video includes comments highlighting what you should look for during the video. These pointers will be important as you practice the same techniques in the clinic.

In this part of the treatment video we look at:

• Swabbing the foot
• Cutting the involuted lesser toe
• The lesser toe
• The involuted hallux nail
• The involuted hallux nail close up

The following videos illustrate treatment techniques. You will be supervised in the clinical situation as you perform these skills. Generally, students doing these tasks for the first time must have a clinical supervisor present before the technique is commenced and during the treatment.
