Here’s a straightforward and practical method to help you manage an ingrown toenail from the comfort of your home:
Begin with a warm saltwater soak
Start by filling a small basin with warm water and mix in about a teaspoon of salt.
Soak your affected foot for approximately 20 minutes.
This step helps to soften the skin and nail, making it easier to manage while also reducing any swelling or discomfort you may be experiencing.
Trim the nail with care
Once the nail is softened, gently trim it using clean nail clippers.
Be sure to cut the nail straight across instead of curving around the edges, as doing so can worsen the issue.
Avoid trimming the nail too short; leave a small amount of length to allow the nail to grow out correctly and avoid further irritation.
Apply antibiotic ointment
After trimming, apply a small amount of antibiotic ointment directly to the affected area.
This will help minimize the risk of infection and promote healing.
