Hey guys; I think I got an ingrown toenail. Last time this has happened was when I was a kid, like 6 years old. But I remember the doctor didn't do shit back then; he just sliced the red part open and let it bleed and told me to soak it. So I grabbed a one inch razor and sliced the side of the red open and dipped my toe in some hydrogen peroxide, then slathered a bunch of antibiotic cream in there and taped some gauze on it. So what should I do now? Just let the thing grow out and keep tending to it?

Salt and warm-hot water, mix to human blood salinity level, let soak in water for an hour or so each day, the nail should work loose, and if it doesn't you're fucked.

Go see a doctor and get the ingrown part removed. He'll also add a chemical that prevents the ingrown part from regrowing.

I also had this problem back in highschool. On both big toes. A year and half of having it, I finally told my parents, who took me to a doctor and in like 20 minutes, fixed it with some minor surgery. He told me I would have lost my toes if I hadn't came in.

amputate from the toe up.

Also had ingrown toenails on both big toes about 15 years ago. Hurt like hell but the fun part was to squeeze the pus out from them everyday (im a sicko).

Oneday it was really swollen so I took a good squeeze to it and broke the skin good, got out a lot of infection. A few days later it was swollen again so another good squeeze and a thin sharp as hell sliver of toenail about 1/3 inch long came out from where the pus comes out of.

Since that day, never had an ingrown toenail ever again

I suffer from this shit. Goto a foot dr. He'll either split the toenail and pull the bad half out and let it regrow in the hopes it comes in without a problem.... (the numb the toe split it with some sicsors and pull the bad half out). If it keeps coming back they'll use some acid and kill it for good......

I had them take one out about this time last year and need to get them to kill it off. I have the one on my left foot killed allrdy.....

OP here; I don't suffer from some recurring nightmare toenail problem. This is an isolated incident because I was a dumbass and went a little crazy with the clippers a few days ago; I just noticed it was hurting a few hours ago and saw it swelled a bit.

This was my toenail... years of ingrown problems. Doctor said that I just had naturally ingrowing toenails and surgery was the best option. Lucky for me, my left toe had never been a problem, until a week before my surgery. So I got both done.

These were the ingrown sections. No problems sense, fairly painless surgery.

Why the hell are you keeping them? Are you going to eat them later?

I kept them to take a picture, then threw them out.

I've had one three fucking times in 2 fucking years. What the fuck. I had it removed the first time. Then It fucking grew back. So I went back to get it removed again, this time adding some fucking solution that makes it not grow back. But oh shit, 6 months later it fucking grows the fuck back again. And it hurts a little. What the fuck do I soak it in?!?! some sort of salt I heard. Getting it removed hurts more than someone cutting off your balls. HURTS LIKE A BITCH. What hurts more is the fucking needles going inside your big toe.

I had one a couple years back. I soaked the area in hydrogen peroxide, slit the skin, extracted the ingrowth, then cauterized the wound.


By the way, I highly suggest that no one tries any home surgeries. I could've just as easily lost my toe.

i had an ingrown toenail. it's nearly healed now, after 2 years of ouch ouch walk ouch ouch walk.

i dug it out with a spoon several times, and cut it in the middle with a knife lots of times. it's been infected 3 times and gone black lots of times.
