Ingrown fingernail such a thing?

Question

because i am experiencing it...not sure why though but i finally stopped biting my nails after years or basically my whole life....does that have something to do with it? or is this cause i got a manicure where they cut my cuticle?

Answer 1

1] you probably have an infected cuticle
2] warm soaks four times a day [ fill a mug with very warm water, and stick finger in it. Try to remember not too drink it! ]
3] apply antibiotic ointment after each soak, and cover with bandage
4] IF:
gets redder, or purple
gets more swollen
gets streaks or rashlike appearance around it
you run a fever
GO TO the DOCTOR!
Should be a lot better in two days. Don't let anyone cut your cuticles! Next time use cuticle remover at home!
