Use hot water as hot as you can stand it put in some salt let your foot soak in it and when you take your foot uot pull the skin away from the nail and put the tip of a Q tip in between the nail and the skin (cut the tip off the Q tip)
yea--it is an ingrown.








soak it in some vinegar water mixture.








1/4 cup regular vinegar and water
Yeah, i get the same thing.


Soak it in warm water for half an hour


once in the morning


once at night


Use disinfectants sometimes


Don't pick at it.


:D hope it works out
sounds like it, I kept getting them for years on both my big toes but someone told me to use an emery board and file the corners around like u would a finger nail, this causes the nail to grow to center instead of to corners. It worked . . I now file all my toe nails just like I do my finger nails and no more problems
Ok i've had the same thing and i've had it for a whole year yes a whole year cuz i keep cutting the nail. Let the nail grow out and it should be fine keep if clean keep it dry.
