We present a previously unreported case of chronic paronychia with 2 separate digital pilonidal sinuses resulting from multiple embedded hair fragments in the eponychium of a dog groomer, who had been repeatedly treated with antibiotics with no success and ended up having surgical treatment. The objective of this study is to remind readers of this rare but possible occupational disease, particularly among employees working with hair, and to emphasize the importance of preventive measures to prevent its occurrence. Intraoperatively, a crescent of eponychial skin parallel to the proximal nail fold was excised, which incorporated the sinuses. Additionally, the nail plate was removed, and multiple hair fragments were retrieved from the nail folds. At the follow-up, the infection had resolved, and nail growth had resumed. Additional animal hair was found in the nail folds, as the patient continued to work without protective gloves. This case highlights the importance of considering embedded hair as a potential cause for chronic paronychia in individuals with occupations involving hair cutting and grooming. Chronic hand infection poses a risk of infection contaminating clients or patients; for example, a veterinarian should not operate with an infected hand. The costs of sickness absences are considerable for all the stakeholders. The use of protective gloves, hand hygiene, skin care, and thorough removal of loose hair fragments should be emphasized for workers in professions dealing with animal or human hair.</p>","PeriodicalId":16632,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11827112/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142829126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
