Why Does This Hurt So Bad?!?

A subungual hematoma is blood trapped under a fingernail or toenail after an injury like a crush, drop, or repeated impact. Because the nail is rigid, the blood has nowhere to go and builds up beneath it.

This creates pressure on the sensitive nail bed, causing intense, throbbing pain. Relief comes from trephination, a simple procedure where a small hole is made in the nail to let the blood drain and release the pressure.

NailVent™ helps make this process more precise and controlled by guiding and centering the needle. It reduces guesswork and helps deliver fast, effective relief safely and consistently.
