Help me to prevent an ingrown toenail from me cutting my toenail too short?!
Question: Help me to prevent an ingrown toenail from me cutting my toenail too short!?
I cut my toenail too short on my big toe and now its really tender and sore at the edge of the nail!. i had to trim it as there was a rag nail digging into my skin!.
I am really worried now that it may become an ingrown toenail!
the thought of anyone else touching the nails makes me feel physically ill, and even last night when i was reading up on how people deal with their ingrown toenails i actually felt faint!
I soaked my foot in salt water to soften the nails but unfortunately the nail is to short for me to place anything under the nail to make sure it grows properly away from the skin!.
ive read tips on cutting nail into a V but again its too short at present!.
should I just continue to salt water the nail until it as grown enough for me to slip something under it!? I've read that using micro porous tape to tape the toe up by basically "pulling" the skin alongside the nail away from the nail will help the nail to grow away from the skin!.
has anyone any tips!? I just want to prevent it from turning into a full blown ingrown!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
Cut all edges into a rounded shape!. A square edge will penetrate the corner skin!. A rounded edge will allow the nail to pass through the inner corner!. When the nail comes out never cut it until it reach the edge of the toe!. Never cut the corners again!. I have seen a dozen cases like that until it happened to me and I discovered the cure!. If it gets infected soak in warm water and pressed the puss!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
