Most drugstore topical "cures" for ingrown toenails do not work. They may soften the nail edge or help the soreness for a short period of time, but they do not cure the problem. The source of the problem is present under the cuticle at the nail root.

The cure for an ingrown toenail usually involves numbing the toe with a local anesthetic such a lidocaine or novocaine. The toe will be completely numb by the anesthetic, and there will absolutely no pain during the procedure. Then approximately an 1/8 inch section of the nail plate will be removed from the painful corner. If an infection is present, it will be treated at the same time. If the root is not treated, then the abnormally growing nail plate will grow back in the same place and cause a similar problem again within a few months.

After treatment a small dressing is placed on the toe and a regular shoe can be worn. Some people prefer to wear a wider shoe, tennis shoe, or an open sandal. The foot is soaked in warm water and the dressing is changed at home the following day.

You need to see your physician before it gets worse~! They should remove it. Then he can put you on medication that will get rid of the infection.

Most products don't work. Your best bet is to go to a foot doctor.
