Answers:
go to a podiatrist and have them cut out the ingrown part!. after that tell them to cauterize the root so that part of the nail will never regrow!. after that itll still hurt for awhile but will get much better after a week or so!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Soak them one by one in a peroxide solution (water & peroxide)!.!.!.!.when the swelling goes down,file them on the nail bed remembering to near the edges!.When new growth appears,file again!.Also,if you can,try sticking a tiny piece of cotton under the nail where it's digging into your skin,it will relieve pressure!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i went to a doctor with an ingrown toenail, and it was infected so she gave me medication, and i had to soak my foot every night, preferably in salt water for like 15 mins!.!.!.!.!.i've had this for like 3 months!.!.!.the the s!.o!.b still hurts, and still isn't grown out yet! :(Www@Answer-Health@Com
