Just say if you you had an ingrown toenail on your big toe and it was really south of cheese r maggots wise?

Okay, here we go... Use a cuticle nipper to trim the dead skin surrounding the nail as much as possible to relieve the pressure and then cut the nail as short as you can. In the future trim your toenails frequently and make sure to make them SQUARE!!! It is the rounded corners that grow into the skin and cause ingrowns. Remember, trim regularly and keep 'em square. Good luck
