My ingrown toenail hurts so much it wakes me up from sleep. Can I manage it at home?
I woke up in the middle of the night with a pain in my toenail.
When I checked, I found that the nail had been cut too short, and the corner of the nail was digging into the flesh and was red and swollen.
When I gently pressed on my nail, the pain got worse.
I quickly lifted the tip of my toenail with a nail clipper and cut it off a bit.
When I sit still, it seems like there is no pain, but sometimes I feel a little pain.
The pain got worse when I walked.
Can I manage ingrown toenails at home?
Or should I seek treatment from a dermatologist or orthopedic surgeon?
If there is a way to relieve pain and correct the shape of toenails in daily life without going to the hospital, please share it~
I'm also curious to know if products like ingrown toenail correction patches are actually effective in relieving pain or correcting toenails.
