Ingrown toenails
So I healed my ingrown toenails: I have always cut my toenails (big toes) too short. At some point, then the edges are inflamed and every millimeter, the nail has grown, has burned like hell. I do not know how long I've endured it, I've even been aiming for a surgical intervention, so I came up with the idea, which then helped:
First of all, I cut the nail completely down, that nothing has pressed and hurt. Then I lubricated Betaisodona on both edges and then plaster over it (has the effect of leaving the skin soft and that's what it's all about). That certainly went 1-2 months. Mühsam, always fresh Betaisodona on it, plaster, I recommend to take this time only black socks, otherwise you are always running around with kackbraunen (in my case, otherwise white) socks.
Every 1-2 days a footbath, the corresponding places gently hatch (with a nail file, that's how I did it), then also any remaining fragments of the nail in the fold dissolve.
Let toenails grow to the front and then NEVER cut that far (that should have been nice to learn in elementary school, that was really an educational gap, my son I teach it now so, but I had no one who would have explained to me once ).
Should a small inflammation develop again: have good experiences with Linola Fett or with a skin antibiotic, whose name I just can not remember, something with "C" I think, but enough fat is enough. All you have to do is to keep the skin soft, so that the hard nail can grow forward unhindered (so grease well and possibly put some plaster on it, so that the moisture remains).
I'm not a podiatrist or what that means, I did that and have been symptom free and pain free for years. And I really suffered.
