Ingrown Toenail Problem?

My toenail is piercing my skin on both of my `thumb` toes. I cannot cut the nail and peel as it is alreadu cut like this


/ \


----/ \--------





with the horizontal parts cutting in. I cannot reach them with a nail clipper. Solution?Ingrown Toenail Problem?
Simple, don't clip them. Use nail scissors instead. Due to the narrowness of a pair of nail scissors you should be able to pry them under the ingrown nail, focus on elevating the nail upwards away from the skin with the scissors, after a couple of minutes of this Supplyy cut off the ingrowing ends.





Oh and make sure you do this after you get a shower or a bath as the nail will soften making the whole process much easier and less painful for you.





Hope I helped =]

My toenail is purple,brused?

i got a bruse under my toe nail and it wont go awayMy toenail is purple,brused?
As your nail grows. the bruise will go away but your nail will fall off. Protect your nail until it grows out as there will be loose edges for a while.My toenail is purple,brused?
Give it time to heal on it's own, it's rather its healing really slow, and it's most liekly that the toe nail will grow out, and the bruise will move along with it.


If it doesnt go away for 2 weeks, then go to the doctor.
Person is right, but you may wait even longer that 2weeks for it to grow out, as long as, it is not painful. I had one and got impatient so I drilled it out with a needle through the nail.

Ingrown toenail trouble?Help?

I have an infected ingrown toenail, which hopefully I will go to the Dr. this week. My toe is swollen, can benydrall take down the swell of it? Or anything for the matter? I have been soaking it three times today, and I use neosporin. It feels super bruised. This is my third one, and I have had surgery done on the two in the past, it just keeps on coming. Thanks for the help.Ingrown toenail trouble?Help?
I have the same thing and I have to make another appointment for a doctor this week. I've had it done 2x on my lft foot, and now will be the 3rd time on my right foot. The doctor said last time he suggests taking the whole nail off and put a deadener there so the whole nail won't grow back. I thought that was crazy, but now, I think I might have to have that done. I'm so sick of this crap and that painful needle they use to numb your toe. Just use neosporin and see the doctor as soon as possible. Good Luck. Telle how you made out after you go huh?Ingrown toenail trouble?Help?
My son used to get them so bad he couldn't walk right sometimes! I took him to a podiatrist and they did an in-office procedure called a ';permanent correction'; and he never had the problem again. He was about 13 when he had it done and he is 27 now.








Good luck!
girl i had the same problem once that crap hurt so much...you should really check ur shoes size make sure there is enough space for ur toes...keep soaking in it but in epson salt..that works...i hope u get to c ur doc...or go to a walk in clinic..thats what i did

Red toenail polish?

I always wear red polish on my toes. I thought it looked nice, but i just saw someone say it was ';slutty'; lol what do you think of red polish on toes?Red toenail polish?
I agree with Erin C blood red looks fantastic on toenails. Red is a very classic color. A lot of glamorous women of the 40's and 50's wore it, definitly not slutty!Red toenail polish?
I'm wearing red on my toes at the moment, and I'm the last person that anyone would think is a slut.

Red looks nice. Red is one of those colors that never goes out of style. So paint away to your hearts content. That someone may just have a personal hang-up about it.
I love red nail polish, but I've been told I had 'sex-nails' when I was wearing it. I don't see anything wrong with it, but of course, people associate the color red with passion, sex, and debauchery. I say keep wearing it, unless you plan to wear fishnets, a miniskirt, and 5 inch heels!
dunno, but maybe nice.
My husband loves red polish on my toes. That said, he likes it because he thinks it's kinda slutty : ) !!
Red is the perfect color on nails!





It begins to look ';slutty'; when you get into a darker color of red, ';purplish red'; or brownish or any other dark colors (blue, black, green, blyech!)





If you have clean, healthy nail beds you will always look attractive. If you cannnot shower or groom your nails, then that is the day that you might want to try sneakers or closed toe shoes.





You won't be any ';cooler'; with open toe shoes if you have dirty, disgusting nails. You aren't required to wear open toe shoes everyday. Wait until you have time to groom them properly and then show them off.
ahaha


i thinkits fine


i just painted my nails %26amp;%26amp; toes red like no joke (:
I think red toenail polish is great. It can make you feel sexy or girlie. Without feeling overly girlie with pinks. Reds make you feel polished and clean. Red is the color of love. Its beautiful. Red isn't slutty. Go ahead and wear the polish. I'm sure it looks great.





Best of Luck!


Meg
I wear it and I prefer the term ';sexy.'; So whatever to the person who said it was slutty.
I LOVE red polish on toes! it looks pretty and lady like... now, if you look skanky the red will look skanky too! don't worry, I'm sure it looks great! keep the red just make sure they are painted neatly, nicely and smoothly!
I love to wear blood red nail polish on my toes - it makes me feel sexy.
noo its not slutty at all!
a lot of ppl love red on their nails. do it if you like it.
NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!
Sorry, i think it looks trashy .
i put white polka dots on it and it looks cute if you were trashy clothes and act trashy it makes you seem trashy
i wear red/pink polish all the time...it is actually considered a ';classic'; color when it comes 2 couture fashion, so i would say keep RED alive sista!!!
I think it looks great on you!!! Not slutty at all.
it looks fine but be careful with dark color nail polish it makes your nails yellow. to get it off you just get acetone nail polish remover and it comes off.
hey i wear it myself. whoever said it is so...*no commment*... it depends on how u look at it. depends on the person looking at it. and some ppl's opinions..u should never care about.

  • Ingrown toenail? help!?

    ok, so i have an ingrown toenail on my big toe. what should i do to treat it?





    also, i am in volleyball, so i have to wear volleyball shoes. i heard that you are supposed to keep the toe dry, but my feet sweat alot. is there anything i can put over my toe like a bandaid or something?








    thanks!Ingrown toenail? help!?
    no bandaid or anything.


    dr scholl has this thing which softens the nail. get that. it won't hurt anymore because its soft and won't dig into your skin.


    if you can't find dr scholl then get any other brandIngrown toenail? help!?
    Soak your foot and see if you can cut the nail where it is grown into the skin.





    Try to pick up some athletic socks that are absorbent, so you can wear them when you are playing volleyball. When you are done playing volleyball, take your volleyball shoes off and wear a pair of flip-flops or sandals so your feet can air out. It might be helpful to maybe wipe them so they are a little dryer with your socks before wearing sandals.





    Also-- I have heard that to help prevent ingrown nails, cut them across in a straight line with only a little bit of rounding on the corners.





    Hope this helps!
    I myself have been a victim to these nasty ingrown toe nail. I would go get them removed by your doctor. They numb the toe where the ingrown toe nail is at and very carefully the doc cut the toe nail. In some cases they pull out the whole nail so you wont have to worry about ingrown toe nails...that is up to the patient if they want it done.





    Just soak your feet in warm water and carefully pull the skin back from the ingrown toe nail and clip the nail itself...they have special toe nail clippers for toe nails and ingrown toe nails.
    soak you foot in hot water and there is a special type of salt sorry cant think of the name and put it in the hot water that always helps me but do it at least a couple of times.....Morgan

    Toenail problems! Ingrown toenail maybe!?

    Ok so I stupidly picked my toenail and it left one side very short. Although the nail has now gone back, it hurts when I touch just above that side of the nail. What do I do?Toenail problems! Ingrown toenail maybe!?
    You should soak it in warm water and epsom salt.


    They sell it at wal-mart and H-E-B, and probably walgreens too.


    It's only about 2-4 dollars.





    And after you soak it, don't poke at it anymore.


    Because it will get infected.





    If the problem persists, go to a doctor.


    They will cut it out.

    Yes, there's this little shop over in Picadodo Square that replaces missing toenails with those from enraged gibbons who have had theirs pulled out by the roots - you see, that's why they're enraged. Then they staple them to your toes. It's all very quick and painless if you're braindead like most people are.Has anybody heard if people do toenail replacement surgery in London??

    Please HelpIngrown Toenail? Please Help, PIC INCLUDED?
    The photo is very fuzzy, but it does seem to be an ingrown toenail. I can tell from the photo that you keep your nails too short, this is a common cause of ingrown toenails. The problem may take care of itself as your toenail grows out, but if not you may need to go to the doctor. After the toenail is back to normal, keep your nails at a longer length.Ingrown Toenail? Please Help, PIC INCLUDED?
    Symptoms of an ingrown nail include pain along the margins of the nail (caused by hypergranulation that occurs around the aforementioned region), worsening of pain when wearing shoes or other tight articles, and sensitivity to pressure of any kind, even the weight of bed sheets or a duvet. Bumping of an affected toe with objects can produce sharp, even excruciating, pain as the tissue is punctured further by the ingrown nail. By the very nature of the condition, ingrown nails become easily infected unless special care is taken to treat the condition early on and keep the area as clean as possible. Signs of infection include redness and swelling of the area around the nail, drainage of pus and watery discharge tinged with blood. The main symptom is swelling at the base of the nail on whichever side (if not both sides) the ingrowing nail is forming.

    I had one so bad the Doc removed my entire toenail! It hurt very little to have it removed and the relief was wonderfull its healling very nucely now http://i32.tinypic.com/141tfrq.Ingrown toenail removed now painfully?
    Try some Motrin/Advil. You may also want to call the MD who did the procedure and ask his advice. They may be able to give additional advice as I'm sure you're not the only one he's had this happen too. Generally with an ingrown toenail, there may be an area that has a wound to it where the nail was digging into the skin. It takes time for it to heal. Just watch that area is not infected with pus, increased redness or red streaks from the area. If that's the case, call your MD immediately. You may need a different antibiotic.

    Ingrown toenail?

    I recently developed an ingrown toenail. is it true that submerging it into a soiled diaper will do the trick? i mean like the minerals and stuffIngrown toenail?
    are you serious??? ';minerals and stuff'; won't do anything for an ingrown toenail...you need to cut the nail away from the skin that it is pushing on. you need to go to the nail aisle at walmart or where ever and get some tools...clippers wont get down the side like you need and then take care of it. if you cant do it yourself then you will need to go to the doctor...if you don't it will just get worse and infected.Ingrown toenail?
    idk. but i had one and my doctor said she could either cut at an angle on the corner or i could do it myself. then you can soak it in salt water.
    Where did you hear that? How about warm water and epsom salt?
    Nice... erm there are better ways I suggest seeing your doctor

    Ingrown toenail surgery questions(only ppl who've had it)?

    So I'm going to the podiatrist today nd I have an ingrown toenail so I'm prbly going to have the surgery today nd so I Was wondering if they hurt nd overall what happens nd I'd like to know from ppl who actually had the surgeryIngrown toenail surgery questions(only ppl who've had it)?
    I've had all 4 borders of both my big toenails removed AND I worked for a podiatrist for many years. The part that hurts the most really is getting your toe numbed up. After that, you shouldn't feel a thing. If you do, tell your doctor right away!


    Since working for a podiatrist, the one thing I would insist on is your doctor should use a chemical on your nail bed where the nail was removed (the doc I work for uses phenol). That stops the nail from just growing back and becoming ingrown again! Your toenail will look a little smaller than it did, but it really shouldn't be noticible.


    I've had patients who have played soccer the next day, I even drove to Chicago the same day after having my surgery!


    You shouldn't be that uncomfortable, but if you notice it becoming red, swollen and painful call your doctor and let them know right away. Good luck!Ingrown toenail surgery questions(only ppl who've had it)?

    Ingrown toenail, hurts bad?

    I think I have an ingrown toenail (left foot, big toe). My mom looked at it, and she believe's so too. It's red, and hurts VERY bad- hurts when things touch it or when I walk.





    Today's the first day that I've felt it. I took a nail-file type thing (the one on the clippers) and tried going under the nail bed, but I doubt I got it, and I have to take a break it hurts so bad.





    Any advice?!? I'm in a lot of pain!Ingrown toenail, hurts bad?
    When you cut your toenails you need to cut them straight across with no rounded edges. If you have rounded edges then the nail grows into the skin causing an ingrown nail. Theres not much you can do and it should go away on its own. Try soaking it in warm water then using sterilized tweezers gently try picking the nail from under the skin. I know it hurts :(Ingrown toenail, hurts bad?
    i had my ingrown toenail removed.





    soak it in salted water twice day for about 15-20 minutes. i did this to my other ingrown toenail, and it went away.

    My toenail fell off. Why?

    I don't think I hit it. It's not bruised. I wanna say there is another toenail there now? It is crazy. My toenail that just fell off looks like a fake nail you could glue on. I don't have any fungus. Or I hope not I have decent healthy feet. I get pedicures biweekly. I guess what I am asking is has this happened to anyone else?My toenail fell off. Why?
    Drink milk - maybe you don't have enough calciumMy toenail fell off. Why?
    Sounds like it died for some reason. Maybe it's due to the frequent salon visits. They're not as clean as you may think. There had to have been some type of injury to the nail bed for it to have fallen off. It should grow back if the bed is still healthy. Otherwise, talk to a doctor. Keep the area clean and covered to prevent further injury.
    Yes. This has happened to my thumb once. It sorta kinda hurt but the pain goes away after a while. Have you seen a doctor yet?
    it died from being banged or something

    My toenail fell off?

    well actually it was only half of my toe nail (my big toe) and it didnt change colour at all, didnt hurt at all, just one day i looked down and so half my toenail falling off and i just pulled it off and it didnt hurt or anything. anyway it grew back straight away good as new. can anyone tell me why this might have happened?My toenail fell off?
    Could be a weakness in the nail. Ive had half of mine come off from hitting it the wrong way in the pool ...My toenail fell off?
    You could have had fungi nail and the water you bathe or shower in could have loosened it up

    Yeah, i've seen a few people get this done at a nail salon. It actually looks cute and nice if you get regular sized nails.Does anyone know if you can put acrylic on your toenails to make them look nicer and longer?
    Yes you can;they're just like fake nails for your toes


    And you can buy them at like walmart,target,etc.


    I think you can get it professionally done also.


    I've never had fake nails professionally done so i wouldn't know, but i don't think its any different than the nails on your hands.

    I have been battleing this fungus under my big toe, but it doesn't spread to any other toe, and my doctor thinks that it came from some sort of trauma to that toe.. anyways, I take the medication (Lamisil) for 2 wks, or however long it suggests, and the nail clears up, but it still comes back after 2 months! Will I ever get rid of this thing? I am at my wits end!Toenail fungus?
    First, use the medication at least a week after the fungus is gone


    Second DITCH YOUR INFECTED SHOES AND SOCKS! like ';the velvetine rabbit'; they can hold micro-organisms for months just waiting to reinfect you.Toenail fungus?
    Vicks Vaporub is definitely worth a try, but it will take longer than a couple of weeks. It may be that eventually you will have to have the nail removed, never to grow back. That is not as bad as it sounds. When healed up one can even put nail polish there where the nail used to be.
    ok... this is going to sound down right strange, but try vick vapor rub. put a little on your toe at night and sleep with a sock on so it doesn't get everywhere... try it for a week

    Ingrown toenail surgery?

    I had surgery on an ingrown toenail years ago and after the anesthesia wore off it hurt REALLY bad! But the Worst part was going back a few weeks later and they took the packing out!! Oh my god--i'll never forget that pain!


    Now, about 10 to 15 years later, my other big toe is infected and ingrown. Have things changed since the last time I had this done to my other toe? Do they still pack the thing with cotton?Ingrown toenail surgery?
    My sister had it done when we were younger and she was out and about the same day --- not sure of the actual procedure but it can't be any worse than childbirth, toothache or living with an infected toenail so I'd check it out if I were you.Ingrown toenail surgery?
    no i dont think so they give you like three shots in the foot well im not sure but my friend had it done he didnt say what they did but said they gave three shots in the toe

    Ingrown toenail?

    What can i do other then going to get the 5min surgery for my ingrown toenail?Ingrown toenail?
    Not much. If it is really bad you will need to get it done, bro.





    About the only thing you can do is soak it in warm water mixed with epsom salts. It will help draw the infection out, and soften the skin around the toenail.





    When the skin is soft, you can try to use a pick or something to help get the nail from under the skin that it has grown into.





    What happens in an ingrown toenail is a slight hook appears on the end of your nail if you trim it too close to the sides. You have to get the hook out from there. It is digging into the skin, and while trying to continue to grow, it ends up growing into your toe. OUCH. I have had several like that, until I finally went and had the procedure. Now I know how to trim them correctly, preventing them from happening again.





    Good luck,

    Those are a pain, aren't they? Try soaking your foot in warm water each night and not wearing constricting shoes. That helped me a lot.

    Ingrown toenail pain relief?

    i have a ingrown toenail, ive had the procedure done before and had it removed. i know the injection to numb it can be a little discomforting. I actually have a apt. today to get my ingrown toenail fixed. I was wondering if before i go if putting orajel on it will help??Ingrown toenail pain relief?
    First, don't take ibuprofen or naproxen as suggested. There will be some minor bleeding from the procedure, this is normal; but using these medications (or aspirin) will cause the bleeding to last longer. You can use paracetemol (also called: acetaminophen) however.





    That said, Orajel won't likely provide any help. Using an ice-pack in the ten or fifeteen minutes before getting the injection may help. You should tell the doctor how much it bothers you, though. There are some methods and medications that can decrease the discomfort, and the doctor may be willing to use them.





    Cheers!Ingrown toenail pain relief?
    I had ingrown toenails on both sides of both of my big toes for about 5 years, and had various procedures performed as a kid. (my parents were always stubborn when it came to doctors) no pain relief is enough





    What procedure are they doing? i had the growth plate on either side of my toe removed, causing it to grow only from the middle and not from the sides and haven't had any issues since. it changed the shape of my toe slightly and having the two of them done separatly and by two different docs doing slightly different made my toes different shapes, but hey, no pain for years. check and see what they're doing, cause if it is simply removing the nail itself, it will probably reoccur.





    as for the orajel (assuming similar to bonjella for teething) not sure, i guess it depends on the severity of it, how much open/proud flesh etc. may also sting a bit if open flesh, but your call in the end
    I've had the sides of both my big toe-nails removed because they were ingrowing. And as for the pain, it's probably going to get worse before it gets better. I remember being in some pain after the operation for quite a while, especially when people accidentally stand on it.
    not sure about orajel?





    Soak your foot in warm water 3-4 times a day.





    Use a cotton bud to gently push the skin away from your toenail.





    Wear comfortable shoes with enough space around your toes.





    Take painkillers, such as paracetamol, or ibuprofen, to relieve any pain.
    use Naproxen sodium. great pain reliever. you can by it at wal mart or walgrens
    how about cuting off your toe? :D

    What to do with ingrone toenail?

    I was told that if you soak the toe nail in warm water and then put cream on it like thick lotion and soak it again the toe nail will soften so you can get it out of your skin. Then you can cut it back.





    You have to cut the nail straight across not round. If it is already cut you are supposed to put cotton under the nail so that it will not grow back into your skin.





    I think the best way to handle these ingrown toenails is to get a pedicure regularly. The technician can see and reach the area better. Also they put Ttree oil on your nails to prevent fungus.





    Good luck.What to do with ingrone toenail?
    go to the doctors to fix it. all those home remedies might cause an infection. I have an ingrown toenail and the only way it will go away is if i go to the doctors. My shoes were to small, and once i got a good size shoe, everything was goodWhat to do with ingrone toenail?
    soak it in warm to hot water for good while


    this will soften up the nail and let you get it out with less pain

    Ouch!!! I have an ingrown toenail now what?

    Go to the doctors. Make sure you bathe it everyday in warm salty water and put penicillin powder on it then a bandaid (:Ouch!!! I have an ingrown toenail now what?
    You come over to my house and let me use my new scalpel to cut out the ingrown part.





    And while I'm at it, I'll lance that big nasty boil on your forehead, too.Ouch!!! I have an ingrown toenail now what?
    If you cut the whole toe of there's no nail left.

  • I have a bad ingrown toenail.. Please help!?

    It has puss coming out and it even has a little bit of blood. im scared to go to the doctor because i dont want to have it cut out. i heard that tea tree essential oil helps. but Please help!!!!!I have a bad ingrown toenail.. Please help!?






    Treatment To treat an ingrown nail at home:


    Soak the foot in warm water. Use a nail file to separate the nail from the inflamed skin. Place a small piece of cotton under the nail. Wet the cotton with water or antiseptic. Repeat those steps, several times a day if necessary, until the nail begins to grow out and the pain goes away. Also, trim the toenail and apply over-the-counter antibiotics. If this does not work and the ingrown nail gets worse, see a foot specialist (podiatrist) or skin specialist (dermatologist).


    The doctor may remove part of the nail or extra skin . If the toe is infected, your doctor may prescribe antibiotics. These may be applied to the skin or taken by mouth.


    In recurrent cases, your doctor may permanently reshape your nail with chemicals or lasers


    I have a bad ingrown toenail.. Please help!?
    You really need to get to the doctors... Its a simple thing tohave it removed, they inject your toe and then cut it off, it doesnt hurt.





    If you really dont want to, it wont go away... But you can try this...





    Long soak it in hot water to soften it all up.. Then get some dental floss and slowly get it behind the in growing toe nail and leave it behind there, at this point you can cut it out yourself or just try to leave that there and let it grow out slowly...





    But Doctors is the best idea
    If there is pus, there is infection. If there is infection and it is not treated, you could lose your entire toenail or even your toe. Just suck it up and go to the doctor. Once they take care of it it's over. If you go and try to do at-home rememdies you could end up with a worse situation that you've already got.
    I had this problem on both big toes and had to go to a foot doctor. She did surgery and cut it out. It wasn't a big deal--just a little gross to watch (at one point there was a Q-Tip with blue gunk sticking out of it--strangest sight ever). It didn't hurt--my toe was numbed up.





    Ever since I have NOT gotten another ingrown. I highly recommend seeing what your doctor says because I know these hurt a lot. Both nails look smaller since like 1cm was cut off, but it's never been commented on. People haven't really noticed the difference.
    It is important that you go to the doctor and get it sorted.


    There is nothing to be frightened of.


    Not only is the surgery quick, it will be a lot less painful than an infected toe and the relief you will feel when it is done will be immeasurable.


    They anaesthatise your toe just to remove a little bity of nail.


    Be Brave.
    Puss and blood means you have an infection. You have to go to the podiatrist and have that taken care of. You will probably have to take antibiotics, as well. Tea Tree Oil will not do anything at this point.
    Just go to the foot doctor. Surgery is minor. They do it in the office, it takes like 5 minutes.
    you beter take your but to the doctor if you wana keep that toe hurry b4 you end up up like toeless joe and we all know what happened to him.....

    Toenail turned purple?

    at first i just thought i'd banged my toenail somewhere and didn't think anything of it. but it's been several weeks and my right toenail is still almost completely purple. in fact, it's not the nail so much as the skin underneath (since it hasnt moved as the nail has grown). i have a similar problem with my left toenail, only it appears on a much smaller area of skin. i can't remember when they appeared or what caused it, and they're both entirely painless. they're just... purple

    Possibly fungus...

    Toenail fungus?

    My big toe is very yellow and brittle. It is also very thick. Does that mean it has a fungus? Is there anything over the counter I can get that works?Toenail fungus?
    It is probable that you have toenail fungus. Whatever you do - don't go to the doctor. They'll put you on dangerous antibiotics.





    Treat topically with an over the counter topical product (the cheapest one that you can find) and dose yourself with vitamin C (you'll want 500-1000 mg capsules) - 4-8,000 mg per day - and oil of oregano capsules (they kill bacteria). You MAY lose the nail, depending on how severe your case is. Expect to see pretty rapid improvement!Toenail fungus?
    I've never heard of a Dr. treating a fungal infection with antibiotics, as they are used in the treatment of bacterial infections. Since the oregano is supposed to kill bacteria, not fungus, it's not likely to be very effective either.

    Report Abuse



    Yes, ask your pharmacist to recommend something. Is very important to keep feet extra clean and make sure nothing gets under that toenail.
    Believe it or no mussel rub such as ben gay will get rid of it.
    Vicks VapoRub: http://www.healthcentral.com/peoplesphar鈥?/a>
    Yes it is and no, nothing over the counter will work. You will need to go to a dermatologist. The treatment is long and will require the removal of your toenail. At least the most effective method I have seen.

    Toenail fungus - can't get rid of it!?

    Those Over the Counter medicines never really cure a Toenail Infection or Fungus. Hes going to have to see a doctor (Podiatrist) to recieve a Prescription Strength medication. Its probably going to be a few months of an oral antibiotic and a daily topical treatment. He has to follow the regimine completely-however rigorous it may be.The doctor will do a scrap test to culture the bacteria thats growing in his toenail bed. If neccessary, they will perform surgery to remove a stubborn bacteria, but thats rarely the case.Toenail fungus - can't get rid of it!?

    Toenail infections?

    My little brother got this really bad toe infection where his toenail is starting to grom into his skin and puss is starting to come out. He syas it hurts really bad. Is there anything he can put on it so that it will go away?Toenail infections?
    well try going to a doctor and see what he says he might prescribe medicine or something cause it sounds pretty serious. and i think there is a type of medcine out right now but if i am not mistaken its called lamisil but i think thats the toe stuff....well i hope this helps.....and i hope ur bro gets betterToenail infections?
    He needs to clean it and go to the Dr. for the infection he can clean it with soap and Water and then use peroxide and then put an antibiotic on it for starters. But I would go to a Dr!
    Try soaking his foot in Epsom salts. Mix about a cup in a bucket of warm water and soak the affected foot one or two times a day. I did this when I had a foot injury, the doctor was considering doing a sking graft, and soaking it really helped, now it's healed.If you don't have any, it's at nearly all drugstores, Wal-Mart has it near the Band-aid section.

  • Toenail whitening tips?

    is their any such thing?


    if so do tell.Toenail whitening tips?
    --An easy way to whiten yellow nails is to use toothpaste. Take a little amount of toothpaste and scrub it on your stained nails, with the help of a soft toothbrush. Repeat the process two to three times daily, for a week. The process will remove the yellow color from your nails.


    --Lemon is a natural astringent, which is used to remove tough stains from many surfaces. It can be used to whiten your yellow nails as well. All you need to do is soak your nails in a solution of one tablespoon of lemon juice, added to a bowl of water.


    --Another option for whitening yellow nails is to rub lemon slices on the them. Repeat the process twice a week, to whiten your yellow and discolored nails.


    --Mix one tablespoon lemon juice with the same quantity of baking powder, to form a paste. Apply a very small quantity of this paste on the center of each of the yellow nails. Now, buff your nails with a nail buffer and wash your hands. After drying your hands, apply a hand moisturizer.


    --An effective way to whiten yellow nails is to make use of a denture-cleaning tablet. Dissolve the tablet in water. Now soak the nails in the solution, for about fifteen minutes. Rinse the nails with water. Repeat the process at least thrice a week.


    --Mix three tablespoons of baking soda with one tablespoon of 3% hydrogen peroxide, to form a paste. Apply this paste on your stained nails and leave on for about ten minutes. Rinse your nails with water, towel dry them and apply a hand moisturizer.


    --A nail cleaner, apart from cleaning, restores the whiteness to discolored nails. Dampen a cotton ball with the nail cleaner. Rub the cotton on your nails. After leaving it on for about ten minutes, rinse your nails with water, to restore the sparkling white color.


    --Remove the old nail polish thoroughly, with a nail polish remover. Now, dip your hands in a bowl of mild liquid soap, for about five minutes. Rinse your hands thoroughly with water. Next, wipe your nails to dry them, with a soft towel.


    --You may also use lemon essential oil for the purpose. Soak your nails in a shallow bowl containing the lemon essential oil. Leave your nails in the bowl for a few minutes, so that the oil works on the discolored nails. This process would condition your nails, making them white and healthy.

    Toenail....big feet i will never show?

    i guess it could be a little embaressing, but you're gonna have to wear flip flops when it does fall off, at least for a while. you don't want to damage it any more than it is damaged because the skin under your nail is extremely sensitive and trust me, i dont thin your gonna waant to wear closed toed shoes.

    You will need to use nail growth polish for about a week or two, avoid cutting your nails. Once they grow go get a pedicure and it will make a worl of difference. I am a male and get a pedicure and manicure every two weeks to keep my fingers and toes looking good.Toenail problem?
    Use a file as they grow. Take some jello pills and eat plenty of jello.

    Toenail Fungus- Would Remedies Work?

    thanks for the reminder. Toenail Fungus- Would Remedies Work?
    Home remedies do no not work... You need to go to a podiatrist. The first thing they will do is take clippings of your toe nail they will send this to the lab to make sure what you have is indeed a nail fungus. The next thing they will do is place your foot under a light to get a closer look at it. If the lab results find fungus and you are other wise healthy, like a person with no diabetes or thyroid condition they will prescribe lamisil and you have to take it 3 times a day for 3 months. every month you have to go back to the podiatrist to have blood test taken to make sure the medication has no bad side effects on you. After the 3rd month you don't have to take it anymore because now it is in your system between 6months to 1 year depending on how bad your fungus is will be how long it takes to clear it up. Trust me its worth it going to a foot doctor.
    I had the same issue a few years ago. I went to a podiatrist and he told me a few things about it.


    The medication is expensive (thankfully mine was covered by insurance).


    It will treat the infection, however, if your house is full of fungal spores from walking around in bare feet a lot, the infection might just come right back. This is why it doesn't work for some people.


    The pills worked for me and the infection never came back.

  • Toenail fungus question?

    The last time I wore toenail polish it made my toenails have some sort of fungus underneath the nail. I applied medicine and it seems to be going away finally. It looks like the toenail that is growing is a healthy color and has returned to normal. My question is, when would it be okay for me to wear toenail polish again?Toenail fungus question?
    Just don't keep the polish on for more than a couple of days at a time. I've heard that Vicks vapor rub applied to toenails for a few days after they've been trimmed helps rid of fungus.Toenail fungus question?
    I would think not until after you have finished needing to put medicine on it..


    But if you have to wear it go ahead...just take off polish regularly add put more medicine.

    I had the same issue a few years ago. I went to a podiatrist and he told me a few things about it.


    The medication is expensive (thankfully mine was covered by insurance).


    It will treat the infection, however, if your house is full of fungal spores from walking around in bare feet a lot, the infection might just come right back. This is why it doesn't work for some people.


    The pills worked for me and the infection never came back.

    Toenail fungus question?

    The last time I wore toenail polish it made my toenails have some sort of fungus underneath the nail. I applied medicine and it seems to be going away finally. It looks like the toenail that is growing is a healthy color and has returned to normal. My question is, when would it be okay for me to wear toenail polish again?Toenail fungus question?
    Just don't keep the polish on for more than a couple of days at a time. I've heard that Vicks vapor rub applied to toenails for a few days after they've been trimmed helps rid of fungus.Toenail fungus question?
    I would think not until after you have finished needing to put medicine on it..


    But if you have to wear it go ahead...just take off polish regularly add put more medicine.

    Have you ever had a toenail hit you in the face? Or break your window?

    Yes. That's why we started wearing the safety helmets. Fantastic!Have you ever had a toenail hit you in the face? Or break your window?
    Well I have clipped my toenails and have had a toenail fly up and hit me in the face, but not break a window and I think that would be very funny. I have seen previews of father ted, but haven't had a chance to see an episode and it looks very funny. I'm a fan of a lot of British shows especially The Vicar of Dibley.

    any info should be consulted with a medical professional first... however, to help prevent any infection, you should put antibiotic ointment and a bandaid on them and seek attention from a podiatrist. Some times you can find relief by soaking in warm epsom salt water to ease pain. please seek medical advice though especially if you are diabetic.
    Don't worry about it. I highly doubt that your toenail will fall off. I think that you just bruised your toenail. try wrapping it and wearing sandals, and try to elevate it and not walk on it too much. It will heal, just give it some time.
    wear sandals or thongs for awhile =it should heal back up
    maybe i would have to see it
    It's best to let them be. Refrain from lifting the nail up and it should heal up. If you have any problems or pain, though, you should see your doctor.

    please answer me! im a bit freaked out!Im going to loose big toenail (foot)?
    It usually takes about 6-9 months for a toe-nail to grow back. It can take awhile to fall off, but it's different for everybody. Certainly you can soak your foot daily in either Epsom Salts or Johnson's Foot Soap and keep Neosporin on it. If the bruising doesn't heal, or it remains swollen and becomes hot to the touch, go see your doctor, you might then need some antibiotics.

    you probably have another ingrown toenail... they often come back after having just one





    ask your foot doctor about getting a procedure done where he puts acid in the sides of you toe to prevent the sides from ever growing back.





    that way, you won't ever have any more pain or ingrowns.

    My son has a ingrown toenail.?

    It's very sensitive red and it鈥檚 even turning purple on the side of the toe. I told him to soak it in Epsom salt and warm water to get the swelling down. What should I do next or should I leave it up to a physician.My son has a ingrown toenail.?
    my brother used to have ingrown toenails all the time. if you ask any pediatrician, they will tell you the same thing im telling you. epsom salt three times a day. don't let him touch or play with it. the cause of an ingrown toenail is when the side of a nail grows very sharp, and starts to stab the toe. take him in to the pediatrician, and he will either get a series of VERY painful shots to numb the area, or the doctor won't give him any local anesthetic. either way, it REALLY hurts. theyll cut it, pull out all the sharp pieces, and bandage it up. to prevent more, file the toenails straight across, rounded at the edges. take a nail file every once in a while, and gently apply upward pressure to the corners. this will teach the nails not to grow inward. if your son keeps getting ingrown toenails, the pediatrician will recommend him to a pediatrist, who will fix the problem permanately.My son has a ingrown toenail.?

    Purple Heart for a 'Broken Toenail?' Democrat Says Yes?

    CNSNews.com) - A Democratic congressional candidate from Pennsylvania, allied with anti-war critic U.S. Rep. John Murtha, Wednesday insisted that in terms of the qualifications for receiving a Purple Heart in the military, ';it matters not whether it's a broken toenail or a slug to the brain.';Purple Heart for a 'Broken Toenail?' Democrat Says Yes?
    That is correct. ANY injury sustained during combat conditions qualifies the individual. Clinton violated the rules when he gave PHs to two soldiers who had been captured in Bosnia by the Serbs and released but Bubba always showed his contempt for our military including left-hand salutes to the crew of Air Force ONe, mocking saluting Marines in a security detail assigned to him, and the like.





    I am retired USAF officer. I know the rules.Purple Heart for a 'Broken Toenail?' Democrat Says Yes?
    Wow. I live in PA and that stuns me.





    I always thought a Purple Heart recipient endured a near death experience. Now all it takes is a near manicure experience?
    Stop bashing our troops.
    When you cheapen 1 medal you cheapen them all, but what do you expect from there is no justify able war. Next they will give the Congressional Medal of honor for stopping an officer from crossing the street when a truck is coming.
    Jim Webb says it better than you or I can about Republicans smearing decorated combat veterans:





    ';...in recent years extremist Republican operatives have inverted a longstanding principle: that our combat veterans be accorded a place of honor in political circles. This trend began with the ugly insinuations leveled at Senator John McCain during the 2000 Republican primaries and continued with the slurs against Senators Max Cleland and John Kerry, and now Mr. Murtha.';





    And further:





    ';a preponderance of the Iraq war veterans who thus far have decided to run for office are doing so as Democrats.';
    Thats how John Kerry got his!
    Well it is based on an injury done by the enemy


    No rules as to how much injury


    other than it has to draw blood
    The idea of the purple heart is to honor the soldier for service in a war who was injured in combat with the enemy, it doesn't matter than he lost both arms and legs...it matters that he served in a life threatening conflict in service of his country...it is done to honor a living person...you can't tell a dead soldier that he was appreciated...I'm a democrat.
    of course. Kerry got a purple heart for a grain of rice in the butt.
    If a person is in a Vehicle and a roadside bomb goes off right next to them and shrapnel cuts them on their foot. Where they not injured by an enemy attack. Well I guess giving Purple Hearts is worst than 4 months extensions in Iraq as well as raising the volunteer age to 42. I guess giving purple hearts is worse than fighting an unjustified war and loosing 3000 troops in the process.

  • For anyone that has had a permanet toenail removal done...?

    when they were starting to numb your toe,honestly, did the shots in your toe hurt?For anyone that has had a permanet toenail removal done...?
    I have had this done three times now. The very first shot never feels good, but after that the fluid takes effect quickly. If you have a problem with needles, most doctors will put some gel around the needle entrance area so it helps numb your toe a little bit first. Also they put a rubber band around the base of your toe that makes the pressure build up and I've noticed that helps with the pain too.For anyone that has had a permanet toenail removal done...?
    YES! god it hurts like crazzyyy omg!


    and they leave it in there FOREVER but i was like younger so i guess it won't hurt as much if you're older.
    only for like 2 or 3 seconds. Then you don't feel a thing, it is kinda cool to watch them after it's numb, cause you know it should hurt alot, but it doesn't.





    I have had a few of them over the years, but the shot only burns a little, doesn't really hurt. At least not bad. You can ask them to use the nitrogen spray so you won't feel the needle, but truthfully, that hurts almost as bad as the needle does. But then again, I am a former Marine, so my idea of pain and yours may differ.

    http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;鈥?/a>Please answer this about ingrown toenail removal?
    It has already been resolved. I have had a needle in the foot though and yes it hurts a lot. They will numb the area first with an topical anesthetic prior to the needle so you'll be OK. You'll find much relief after the procedure. Cut your toe nails straight and make sure you don't let them dig into the skin anymore. Although I'm sure you know that now.





    Take care.

    I have an ingrown toenail??!!?

    should i try and remove it myself (although i tried it before and it REALLY hurt)


    or


    get it removed by a professional tomorrow???


    or


    leave until after wednesday??





    Thanks :)I have an ingrown toenail??!!?
    I'v been dealing with Ingrown toenails all my life. And please bare in mind this is my opinion and I'v found it to work and be cheaper then getting it removed professionally.





    Normally my ingrown toenails come back ever 3-4 months. It really depends on what stage your at. If you have it infected of course your going to deal with pain. what you want to do it cut kind of a half U on the side thats ingrown with a knife, after that get tweezers and just keep pulling it till it comes out. You are going to feel pain from the infection so before and after put a cap of hydrogen peroxide in the area. Then it'll be just fine.





    If its not infected you will have it worlds easier. Just cut the U part and pull till it comes out. Now after you get it out cut a V in the very top part of your toenail that way your nail will grow in a little to try to heal it thus taking the ingrown part out for a small amount of time.





    I have had friends and family go to the doctors and get the ingrown part removed. It only worked for a year at most then came back.





    As long as you can endure the pain of pushing your skin apart to put the tweezers in there you grab the nail thats the most amount of pain your get.





    Good luck and hope whatever you do works out for you.

    Most ingrown toenails occur due to cutting the nail too short. Avoid doing this! To decrease the pain while it is growing back out you can use a liquid childrens aspirin. Just a few drops should work. If it doesn't help you could also try Anbesol(toothache medicine). Either one should do the job.If ingrown toenails are a frequent occurance with you, you can go to a podiatrist.

    You usually get ingrown toenails when you don't cut your toenails straight. If you stop digging them they you will grow out of it. Word of advise never cut your toenails to tight.

    or which product is effective?What can I do about my yellow toenails?
    Yellow nails are often the first sign of a nail fungus. The best treatment is Zetaclear. Some of the key ingredients in Zetaclear include Tea tree oil, Jojoba oil, Lavender oil and Clove oil, all of which have well-known anti-fungal and soothing properties. It works, or you get your money back with no questions asked. Lemon juice can actually stain the nail causing darker discoloration.What can I do about my yellow toenails?
    Yes there is something you can by at the sally beauty shop - its a little packet of powder and you soak your nails in it. Removes all yellow marks really well.


    But usually I use one of those buffer emery boards and gently file away the top layer. Just make sure you use a really fine emery board esspecially for this. Not the kind for filing nails or you'll dammage your nails.

    Yeah, my mom and on my brothers desk you will see a whole pile of toenail clippings. But I think he just hasn't gotten to throwing them away. :)

    Bruise under my toenail?

    It's from my stupid ski boots. I have this bruise under my toenail, how do I get rid off it?! I've been letting it heal for about 4 weeks, and its still there! It's brownish purple, and I would love for it to be gone for spring break.Bruise under my toenail?
    A bruised toenail will ususally heal in 4-8 weeks depending on how you take care of it, dont wear shoes, heels, etc. that will put strain or pressure on the toenail, its best to wear looser shoes or sandals if you want it to heal faster. If it doesnt heal by spring break, you can just pain your toenails a solid color, it will hide it, and you dont have to worry about the appearance of it.Bruise under my toenail?
    I had one from a water bottle falling on my toe. It took a full year to grow out. Just wear toenail polish on spring break.
    The easiest way of removing blood from under a toenail is to remove it using a syringe or to have a small hole placed directly on to the toenail, allowing the blood to drain
    it will get better faster if you care less about really lame things like how you look with a bruised toenail.
    It will heal on it's own, but it will take long because it is under your nail.
    bruises take time to heal...just wait a bit longer...
    It is likely (not definite) that your toe nail will actually fall off. This usually happens when a finger/toe is bruised under the nail. But a new one should grow back if it's not badly infected.

    What makes your toenail fall off?

    klay and 44 gave good answers, but also note that certain types of cancer and infections can cause your toenails to loosen up, lift up, and fall off.What makes your toenail fall off?
    my big toe nails fell off about 4 time because my soccer cleats were too tight on them!








    10 points!?What makes your toenail fall off?
    To have your toe nail fall off you need a big injury to it. You can bruise it badly too if you slam it into a door, drop something on it, bite it or put way too much pressure on it.
    my little toenail fell off when i broke that toe by running into a door frame. it hurt so badly but it grew back =]
    and add fungi to the list too.

    You should buy a new pair of shoes ,because it takes a long time for your toenails to grow and it is always good to have new shoes.

    What can I do about my yellow toenails?

    does applying lemon juice really work? how?


    or which product is effective?What can I do about my yellow toenails?
    Yellow nails are often the first sign of a nail fungus. The best treatment is Zetaclear. Some of the key ingredients in Zetaclear include Tea tree oil, Jojoba oil, Lavender oil and Clove oil, all of which have well-known anti-fungal and soothing properties. It works, or you get your money back with no questions asked. Lemon juice can actually stain the nail causing darker discoloration.What can I do about my yellow toenails?
    Yes there is something you can by at the sally beauty shop - its a little packet of powder and you soak your nails in it. Removes all yellow marks really well.


    But usually I use one of those buffer emery boards and gently file away the top layer. Just make sure you use a really fine emery board esspecially for this. Not the kind for filing nails or you'll dammage your nails.

  • How much could I make off of a necklace made out of my toenails?

    Well, I think it depends on who you sell it to. For instance, if you can find a really creepy guy that wants your body, sell it to him. I bet he'll take it for like 20 bucks...yeah, the creepy guy is probably your best bet. And maybe you could even up your odds by selling him a bracelet made of dead skin as an added bonus. Good luck.How much could I make off of a necklace made out of my toenails?
    If your britney spears, $5-10 thousand. If you joe shmoe I think they charge you for that stuff.How much could I make off of a necklace made out of my toenails?
    People would probably pay you to KEEP IT.
    HAHAHA who knows. Put it on eBay and see what happens.
    keep to yourself or throw it out..
