First, the pediatrist has to use a shot to make your toe numb for when he cuts the ingrown toenail. So the shot doesn't hurt, he will spray some cold spray on it. the cold spray stings a little, but it helps not to feel the shot as much. Yes, that means you will feel the shot but it won't nesessarily hurt. After that, he will do his job in fixing your ingrown toenail.
You should wait at least a week if the sex involves your toe.
It can be, to make sure about your condition do a medical check up. for reference about yeast infection you can visit http://www.yeastinfectioncenter.org and more about nail fungus on http://www.nailfungusrelief.info
Evidence that a toenail is actually infected is if the toe has swelling or redness & if there is pus underneath the toenail. If the toenail is infected, you can 1). with the the blade of a finger nail clipper CAREFULLY go under the nail and try pulling it from the skin, 2). soak your foot in a pan of epsom salt mixed with hot water for about 20-30 minutes. If neither work, or if you do not want to try clipping the infected nail yourself, make an appointment with a podiatrist.

Ingrown toenails hurt because what is happening is that your toenail is penetrating the skin. when anything penetrates your skin it will hurt. The toenail will press on nerves in the toe. another reason that it hurts is that it is infected. The way to treat an infected ingrown toenail is to remove the toenail from the opening in the skin with nail trimmers then soak the toe in warm salt water. Hope this helps!!
The most effective treatment for an ingrown toenail is surgery. You need to remove the sides of the nail from the cuticle in order to stop regrowth from curling back in.
take a needle go right into the the part of the toenail by the skin, lift the toenail up with the needle and take the nail clippers and cut it back. or in the front of your toenail right in the middle, cut a v shaped figure. the point of the v should be facing up the toenail. this way the toenail will grow toward each other and will prevent ingrown toenails to happen.
get your parents to cut your toenails for you, if you are bad at cutting them.
You should soak it in epsom salts and then use some ingrown toe reliever. I believe Dr.Scholl's makes some
