Statistics by Country for Ingrown nails
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Ingrown nails:
These statistics are calculated extrapolations of various prevalence or incidence rates
against the populations of a particular country or region.
The statistics used for prevalence/incidence of Ingrown nails are typically based on US, UK, Canadian or Australian statistics.
This extrapolation calculation is automated and does not take into account any genetic, cultural, environmental, social, racial or other differences
across the various countries and regions for which the extrapolated Ingrown nails statistics below refer to.
As such, these extrapolations may be highly inaccurate (especially for developing or third-world countries) and only give a general indication (or even a meaningless indication)
as to the actual prevalence or incidence of Ingrown nails in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Ingrown nails: The word 'prevalence' of Ingrown nails usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Ingrown nails at any given time (i.e. people with Ingrown nails). The term 'incidence' of Ingrown nails means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Ingrown nails diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Ingrown nails). Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence. For more information see about prevalence and incidence statistics. |
Prevalance of Ingrown nails: 26 per 1000 - NHIS95 (trouble with ingrown nails)
Prevalance Rate for Ingrown nails: approx 1 in 38 or 2.60% or 7.1 million people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Prevalence Rate of Ingrown nails to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above prevalence rate for Ingrown nails to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these prevalence extrapolations for Ingrown nails are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual prevalence of Ingrown nails in any region:
