Ingrown TOE Nail Recurrences

Having issues in the both the toe nails for past 6 years. Done partial removal and complete removal multiple times but somehow it causes problem again after 6-8 months. Nearby General Surgeon is suggesting to do the same procedure and also he says if you want you shall go for complete nail bed removal. He says that nail will not regrow anymore once after the procedure.And that procedure needs to be performed under General anesthesia but not with Local anesthesia. Please let me know your thoughts. And From the first occurrence , I wash my nail regularly, trim it only when it grows outside the finger , I trim it only in straight manner and not curved cut.. Not wearing Shoes for past 5 years and it is occasional only..please help me out.. Let me know whether I go for nail removal or the complete procedure for removing the nail bed. Will the nail growth really stops once after the nail bed removals? Do we need general anesthesia for that?And what is approx Cost for surgery in Chennai,TN.
