Ingrown toenails occur when the edge of a toenail, usually the big toe, grows into the surrounding skin, causing pain, redness, swelling, and sometimes infection. While mild cases can sometimes be managed at home, recurring or severe ingrown toenails require professional podiatric care to prevent complications and relieve discomfort.
