OverviewA frequent ailment known as an ingrown toenail occurs when a toenail's edge or corner grows into the surrounding skin. This can lead to pain, irritation, and occasionally infection. Though it can affect any toe, the big toe is the most frequently affected. Ingrown toenails can cause discomfort and, if left untreated, can develop difficulties. An ingrown toenail frequently results from the nail curving and penetrating the surrounding skin, causing discomfort and swelling. An injury to the toe, tight shoes, incorrect nail cutting, or a genetic tendency can all lead to the formation of ingrown toenails. An ingrown toenail frequently presents with pain, redness, swelling, and warmth in the vicinity of the injury. Pus leakage and increasing discomfort are among the other symptoms that may arise from an infection of the ingrown toenail. Appropriate care and therapy can help reduce the symptoms and avoid consequences. It may involve lifestyle changes, at-home remedies, or, in extreme circumstances, medical intervention. It's critical to seek medical assistance, particularly if the ingrown toenail is recurrent, connected to an infection, or if the feet are affected by underlying medical disorders. Ingrown toenail risk can be decreased by taking preventive steps including wearing shoes that fit properly, taking good care of your feet, and trimming your nails correctly. Treating ingrown toenails and advancing general foot health require early detection and effective care.
