Pernio-Induced Toe Pain in the Setting of Onychocryptosis: A Case Report

Its association with systemic disease underscores the importance of accurate diagnosis. The authors describe a case report in which a patient who, after initially presenting with a complaint of pain and an ingrown toenail, was eventually diagnosed with pernio as well.
