What are Nail Avulsions and Matrix Biopsy?
Nail avulsions involve the partial or complete removal of a nail to treat infections or trauma. A matrix biopsy removes a small tissue sample from the nail matrix to diagnose underlying conditions. Both procedures provide effective treatment and accurate diagnosis of nail disorders.
