IM FREAKING SCARED I HAVE ONE RN AND IM IN QUARINTINE HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DO THIS

[@Wh012y0u]

Bro I feel so bad for the people that stubbed their toe that has a ingrown toenail 💀

[@ihrtemma542]

dude I'm 13 and I think I have one rn- the side of my toe is swelled up and it hurts. I have a volleyball game next week!! Can I just go away on its own😭😭

[@pikathunderr]

if i could just rip my toenail off without it hurting but actually feeling good, that would be the best thing i could possibly get in my life right now

[@stassielevyn5464]

I can literally feel my heart on my toenail rn😭😭😭😭 i wanna cry Update: it’s been two weeks and I couldn’t get it out. It doesn’t hurt that bad rn but if I touch it like if I try to dig it out. I’ll cry, I put vapor rub on to stop the infection but it does come back and now my other toe decides to hurt too. I tried to get that one out before it gets like the main one that hurts but no so now I wanna kms and go fully under anesthesia Bc ik I won’t survive the foot anesthesia I hate anything that hurts for more than 5 seconds I can’t 😭😭😭😭😭😭

I thought I had an ingrown toenail, but it was a chipped nail that was piercing into my skin. This video worked a miracle!!!

I had ingrown-toenail back in 2006, I took a lot of foot baths but I had to get a metal thing to push the nail up again, it was hurting so much first time but then over time it got better

God, its quarantine. Can't even get out of the house. Where am I supposed to get ointment and hydrogen peroxide. My toe hurts already

[@bubbletea5311]

I got surgery on mine just a few hours ago it doesn’t hurt at all it only takes five minutes and yes you are awake for the surgery but you don’t feel a thing and the doctor is really patient and nice I won’t lie the only thing that will hurt is when you get two needle to numb your toe so it doesn’t hurt I hope reassured you 🥰

[@Mike-qt8hr]

Anyone else checking the comments to see if this actually worked?

[@guillermoramos56]

I’m just gonna cut my toe off

[@grapepopglaceon264]

I actually pulled up ingrown toenail videos as a way of seeking comfort and distraction from how much my own toe hurts. T^T

[@genedixon5317]

Awesome video. It revealed a lot of tips to use. All I did was soak a piece of paper towel & my toe with water, apply the same method at

[@chocolatepoodle6028]

Ffs. Why can't anybody on this stupid website learn how to use end cards appropriately? They're overlaying the text in the video.

WebMD be like: "after you have completed all these steps, you will be diagnosed with Cancer"

[@animaldreamgirl5924]

I have an ingrown toenail right now and it hurts so much then I saw this... It works thank you so much!!!

[@jamesfred0780]

One thing that i have noticed from experiencing a few ingrown toenails is that using something like dettol in the water for soaking works well too

[@Solarys]
