I have infected toenail problem. Sometimes ago i consulted few doctors for surgery but they gave only medicines by saying that even after surgery it will happen again. I've taken medicines for few days but as i stopped it, pus release has started again. Kindly suggest what i can do? One year ago i had gone through the surgery.
