Ingrown toenails are a frequent source of foot discomfort. They develop when the edge of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, which can cause:
• Pain and sensitivity
• Redness and swelling
• Risk of infection
Factors like natural nail shape, tight footwear, and improper trimming can increase the likelihood of developing an ingrown nail.
If you’re noticing ongoing discomfort or signs of infection, it’s best to have it assessed by a professional.
