My big toe has been killing me for weeks. What's a good way to get rid of a hangnail?

i had surgery on my big toe, and other places too. the big toe was the worst pain i have ever had. i get crazy in grown toe nails. the best solution is just constant TLC.

First I grin and bear cutting the in grown part out. Then trim the nail just barely - don't cut it all off!
Then over the next couple of weeks I trim only the middle part of the toe to keep tension off the part that will in grow. Eventually I will have to cut the in grown part again, but it is much less painful because there is less tension.

This is the best method to maintain the nail that I have found. But if you have already been whacking at the nail and have found that a "piece is stuck". Then I would have to recommend either toughing it out until it grows long and manageable again or go to a podiatrist. A podiatrist needs the work anyway. I toughed mine out and it was almost a religious experience unequaled by fasting or stigmata.
