Ingrow Toenails
In my both toenails is wound due to ingrow nails from 3-4month. When i visit to doctor they give me date for surgery but when they give me anaesthetic in toenail (total 8 very painful).
But anaesthetic didn't work so they suggest me go to higher hospital so now i am afraid from taking anaesthetic syringe again can there is another way to cure ingrown toenail wound without taking syringe.
Does it affect my toe if i don't visit hospital.
