Abstract
Paronychia, an inflammation or infection around the nails, may be either acute or chronic. Acute paronychia, usually caused by bacteria, responds to appropriate antibacterial treatment and warm compresses of normal saline, silver nitrate or Burow's solution. Nonspecific chronic paronychia, usually caused by repeated exposure to some irritating, exogenous stimulus, is more difficult to treat.
