Kaleici: local notes for ingrown toenail
Kaleici is the walled old harbour quarter of Antalya, with Roman gates, a tower, narrow Ottoman streets and boutique hotels, so hot cobbled walks and long days outdoors are typical. Sandy sandals, wet feet and long beach walks irritate the toe. Dry your feet well, wear roomy shoes and soak the toe.
