Do you know the right way to deal with your ingrown toenails?

Keep toenails at a moderate length. Trim toenails so they’re even with the tips of your toes. If you trim your toenails too short, the pressure from your shoes on your toes may direct a nail to grow into the tissue. — TNS

Ingrown toenails are a common condition in which the corner or side of a toenail grows into the soft flesh.

The result is pain, redness, swelling and, sometimes, an infection. Ingrown toenails usually affect your big toe.
