If you're having severe pain from ingrowing toenails, you need to take pain killers. And you also need to see a surgeon - these need to be surgically adjusted if it is causing you severe problems.

When is a toenail ingrown?

You can tell when a toenail is ingrown when it is red and hurts. The nail may not hurt until youtouch it, and this is still a sign your nail is ingrown. (regular toenails are not red and do not hurt! )If you are having this problem, do not touh it!That is the worst thing you can do. Instead, go to a doctor and hae him/her remove it properly with clean tools... It is better to catch an ingrown early with little pain then bring it to the doctors later when it becomes infected and much more painful. (and trust me they are very painful and gross... )I am twelve years old, and i have had more than 15 bad ingrown toenails in my life. Every time, i am scared and i don't tell anyne about it until i cannot stand the ppain anymore, then i go to the docotrs and everythingis solved. (:

How do you fix an ingrown nail?

The way you fix an ingrown toe nail is either if it's purple like the one I had 2 years ago, then they put a huge needle in your toe to numb it then they cut your toe open (as you watch) and cut out the ingrown toe nail. And yes, it IS very very painful! But I lived and your toe will never get another ingrown toe nail. People actually pass out from the shot which hurts REALLY bad i just screamed my head off. Now if it's not that bad then there are many different over the counter ways of treating this very painful toe nail.

How to Remove an Ingrown Hair?

Ingrown hairs are annoying and painful. Letting the hair grow out and free itself from the skin. This can be done with daily moisturizing and soft exfoliation to slowly remove the dead skin cells that are blocking the hair from reaching the surface. If you wish to remove the hair, it is possible the hair will become ingrown once again; however, a gentle pinching at the site of the ingrown hair should release the hair so you can pluck it.
