What to do if your toenails grow into the flesh? Here are the correct treatment methods

The phenomenon of nails growing into the flesh is usually called ingrown toenail, which is a common foot disease. If this disease occurs, it is best to go to a regular hospital for nail removal surgery, and also pay attention to trimming the nails frequently.

01

In fact, the phenomenon of toenails growing into the flesh is called ingrown toenails, which means that the toenails grow into the flesh. Ingrown toenails are a common foot disease. They occur when the toenails are trimmed too deep or too low, and when the toes are squeezed by wearing pointed, skinny shoes. Most people with ingrown toenails trim their own toenails at home. Those with better conditions go to pedicure centers to trim their toenails. However, it should be noted that repeated trimming will cause chronic stimulation of the proliferation and thickening of the nail groove tissue, making the toenails more likely to grow into the flesh. In addition, those pedicure places are not medical places and do not have strict disinfection measures, so it is easy to spread other diseases, such as onychomycosis.

Therefore, if you suffer from ingrown toenails, it is best to go to the hospital and have the doctor remove the diseased toenails and apply medicine, which may have a great effect. But for some people, even if the toenails are pulled out, the new toenails may still grow into the flesh. So be sure to go to a regular hospital and let the doctor help you deal with it to avoid recurrence.

03

In fact, the disease of "ingrown toenails" is not congenital. It is mostly caused by personal factors, such as trimming the toenails too severely, always wearing shoes with pointed toes, and not wanting to throw away the shoes that are too small. Although the purpose of saving money has been achieved, it has already caused harm to your health. Wear a pair of suitable shoes and keep your feet clean, and "ingrown toenails" will stay away from you.

Note:

At the same time, pay attention to the following points: take good care of the skin around your nails to prevent it from being damaged, and do not cut your nails too short. Develop good hygiene habits and do not remove hangnails at will. Once hangnails appear, cut them with scissors and avoid removing them forcefully.
