It doesn't hurt so much..
Or is there a way to get rid of it without going to the doctor?Can I just leave an ingrown toenail alone?
Sure you can leave it alone if it doesn't hurt too much. If it's not too bad you can try soaking your toe in warm water then gently trying to lift the corner of the nail that's ingrown out of the skin, and push the the skin back from the edge of the nail.
The best way to treat them is not to get them , most are caused by cutting nails too short or by shoes that don't fit right. If you get them frequently try correcting those two things.Can I just leave an ingrown toenail alone?
oook. good thing you arent in the army or i would yell at you. dont leave it alone, get it taken care of, by taken care of i mean 1 of 2 things. you can get a cue tip, take the cotton off of it, and pack it under the nail where the ingrowing nail is, helps lift it out and hopefully will grow right, (painfull) here is a picture to illistrate my meaning

OR get it removed! nobody wants a crazy infection happening on their feet, trust me. i have treated and removed over 200 ingrown nails in the last year and a half.
dont use tweesers or your nail clippers, as it will only shorten the nail, giving it more room to grow down!
The longer you leave it alone the more infection you will have later and the more pain you will be in. Soak your foot in warm for 15 minutes then lift the corner of the nail from the nail bed and try to cut the nail and pull it out with tweezers.
