#7 Some Epsom Salt First
Surgeries can be really scary. And very honestly speaking, undergoing a surgery for something as minuscule as a toenail does not make any sense to me. We give you a first hand procedure of removing your ingrown toenail without any surgery.
Firstly, get some Epsom Salt. Soak some crystals of salt in hot water, so your solution would be better than just plain water.
#6 Soak Your Leg
Now, soak your feet in the mixture of hot water and salt that you prepared. Make sure that you soak your feet for 30 minutes. Soaking your feet will soften your skin, thus makes it more 'cooperative' and soft, especially when some tissues around the ingrown are needed to be cut.
#5 Prepare The Tools
Now that you are not going to undergo a surgery, you'll need to work with the tools yourself. Tweezers, cotton balls, clippers etc. Make them ready.
#4 Clip And Lift
From here on, you have to be really careful in whatever you do if you want to avoid the pain. Clip and lift excess nails, and the ingrown as well. Be very careful!
#3 Some Cleaning
Time for some cleaning. Before you apply some antibiotic cream, clean your nails a bit!
#2 Some Antibiotic Cream
After you've cleaned your nail. Put some antibiotic cream on the nail and place some cotton on it!
#1 Cover With A Bandage
Finally, cover your whole nail with a clean bandage. This is crucial. The cloth must also be cleaned. And that's it, you don't need a surgery anymore.
