Left toe nail growing curved, painful!

2019-01-08 00:02:08
I had the problem for 2 years. It's painful and infection happens at times, with yellow liquid coming out from the side. The toe is rigid due to, I guess, a fracture caused by a minor accident. Since the accident the nail has not been growing normally. I need some advice on how I should proceed. Should I take the nail out and let it grow again? My concern is that the "broken" toe, will produce the same curved nail again. Should I get x-ray big the toe? Should I break the toe again and make it to heal properly? Any advice is appreciated :-)
