Ingrown Nail Removal care

2017-07-25 02:19:27
I recently (about two weeks ago) had my entire big toenail removed. I have been caring for it at my doctor's requests. I am worried about it being infected. It looks quite white, with a small amount of yellow. I believe it might be from the antibiotic I put on it that hasnt been "scrubbed" off yet.

Thanks for the query. Recurrence of nail problem can be quite disappointing. There are few things to remember about the condition. It can be referred in this link for authentic information on ingrown toe nails https://www.aad.org/public/kids/nails/ingrown-toenails\ For preventive care, meet a Podiatrist or Dermatologist.
