Ingrown toe nail , help me?

Okay my toe nail on one side is completely straight up and the skin is too and then the other side its tilted to the skin and the skin is all tilted too, and the nail goes into the skin and you cant get to the corner unless you yank the nail up , push the skin back. It hurts to put pressure on my nail everywhere, the top of my toe, the side of my toe. And you can feel the nail through the skin. Is this an ingrown? Should i tell my dad? and what should i do?Ingrown toe nail , help me?
Yes, tell your dad. It's only going to grow into your toe more. I've had 2 procedures to get rid of in-grown toenails. Meanwhile, if you try to dig it out, it will be so painful. Here's a way to relieve the pressure of the nail under the skin, and draw out any infection: Fill a large tub (something that your foot will fit in) with really warm water and epsom salts, (they're really cheap and you can find them in just about any drug store). Soak your foot in there for 15-20 minutes. It will relieve the pressure and soften the nail. You can do it every day if you want, until you can get some help from your dad. Good luck!Ingrown toe nail , help me?
Yes, tell your Dad. I don't think it's ingrown yet, but it's on its way. You can buy a nippers--it's a manicure/pedicure tool that is really sharp and pointy and you could trim a tiny, tiny bit of nail at an angle to get it out from under your skin. It is extremely important to wash your foot, pedicure tools in hot soapy water, dab off everything with alcohol and then go to work. Then put some antibotic cream (Neosporene) on your toe nail(s). Your Dad should do it for you
I recommend you to go to a doctor, and wash your toe nail with warm water. And telling your dad isn't important, oh wait, IT IS IMPORTANT!! PLEASE TELL YOUR DAD IMMEDIATELY, B4 IT GETS EVEN WORSE!!! I feel very awful for you. If I were you, I would leave it alone for a couple of min. To treat ingrown toe nails, Put some cotton inside the ingrown toenail so it wont have a rash thing.








Hope your toenail feels better :~)
that sounds like and ingrown nail to me.


you should tell your dad.


depending on how bad it is you may need to go to the doctor.


for now on, when you clip your nails make sure not to cut the corners, just cut straight across and you shouldn't get an ingrown nail again.
you might want to keep it from infection until you get to the doctor try peroxide! it may sting but keep it clean until you can get it looked at! then when you can get it situated after always cut your nails straight across if not it'll happen again





defiantly tell him
sounds like it is ingrown, soak it in some sea salt and water, tell your dad, he can get you that soak.


also cut a V in the top of your nail right in the middle and this will help it grow out more normally.
Definately sounds ingrown and possibly infected.Yes you need to tell your dad and he should take u to the doctor.Don't mess with it more than u have too or u may make it worse.Sorry :o(
See a podiatrist. He/ she will numb and cut away the ingrown portion of the nail. With luck, and good care it will heal well and won't grow back again.
I would tell your dad. My doc had to cut the nail out when I did that. I would go to the ER.
Tell your dad before it gets infected and turns green. Mine got infected and it took about 3 years to fully heal.
