How to permanently get rid of an ingrown toenail?

i've been to the doctors a lot of times and finally got to the point of them putting chemicals in my toe to get rid of it....he said now i shouldn't have it anymore








but my toenail ripped off (top half) and now i have an ingrown again. and it hurts. it doesn't puss as much as it did before the chemical procedure, but i did see it puss a little bit.








don't say i need to get it amputated cuz i've heard about that and there is no way in hell i'm getting it amputated. i'll keep going to the doctors to get it out, rather than get it cut off.





should i tell the doctor what's going on? before, he didn't put me on meds...so should i ask for meds if i'm gonna go in for another chemical procedure?How to permanently get rid of an ingrown toenail?
I had alot of ingrown toenails and this is the easiest way to get rid of them. When you get out of the tub (the nail will be soft) dig out the corner of the nail with the little nail file on the nail clippers. Take a little piece of cotton roll it up between your fingers and put neosporin on it. Stuff it under the nail you just dug out. I know it will hurt when you dig it out but it has to be done. Since the cotton is under there the nail will grow out normal and the cotton will come out with it. Try it! It works.How to permanently get rid of an ingrown toenail?
They will probably have to anesthetize your toe, dig under the nail, and cut off the ingrown portion so it starts growing the layers in straight again. Very painful, and hideous looking for about 4 months, but very worth it. it feels better after 24 hours. about the half the time, it will grow in ingrown again, but ive been lucky.
