How can you relieve the pain from an ingrown toenail without having the toenail removed?
it depends which nail is ingrown…This may be disgusting but if its your big toe nail then the “Surgery” isnt bad…thy stick a numbing needle into your toe then cut out the nail and if you want they will stick this form of acid in to that part so the nail on that side wont grow back. I have an ingrown toenail now…and have had one previously…i believe the best thing you can do for right now is soak the toe in warm water and epsom salt…Do it every day until you can get to a doctor… If you DONT want to go to a doctor you can cut it out yourself…but it hurts BAD… i have seen my dad do it..he takes a knife sticks it in there and cuts it out…its really crazy but it works…Also my fiancee had one that was so bad his nail was BADLY infected he had let it stay that way to long and i watched him cut his own out “VERY BLOODY!!!” so watch what you do with it…
I’m not sure if you can. I do know that when I had ingrown toe nails removed they only took a tiny sliver from the side and it wasn’t even noticable. I even went as far one time to kind of pull up on that corner of the toe nail and it loosened itself up and I cut it out. Then I cut a very small V in the middle of the nail and my nail grew toggether and naturaly pulled up out of my foot.I hope these suggestions may at least help a little bit.
