i hate ingrown toenails

[ratmonkey]

i've had both big toenails removed 3 times by a doc and the matrix deadened and they still get ingrown and infected every month. i just love having to cut out 1/3 of my toenail every 3-4 weeks and x-acto an infection too.

Why do they not kill the root?

Yea ingrown toenails are the worst especialy when you get that fucker stepped on( cleats hurt the most). I got one removed about seven years ago, they killed the root and it has never grown back.

Are your sneakers too big or too small? Whenever I performed cardio, I would get an ingrown toenail. I would stop cardio and it would pretty much clear up. Finally figured out my sneakers were a little too tight. I know it may sound stupid, but it might work for you. Peace.

they've been ingrown for nigh on 6 years now, through probably 8 pairs of shoes and 6 different types/brands.

i just dropped a heavy ass pot on my left big toe and tore the entire nail off after spending 45mins doing my home surgery on it the day before. i never get a break.
