Probably ingrowning toe nail
I had an injury on my right toe before an year due to which blood got clotted inside it. Nail remained intact at that time. Now I’m feeling pain in the edges between the nail and skin. I think the nail is growing inside the skin and it is not possible for me to even touch that part. After the injury the shape and its outer surface has become very rough. It looks really bad.
Is removing the nail only best option?
Will a good nail come after removing it?
