Infected: There is no home remedy for an infection. You need to make an appointment with your podiatrist for the appropriate care . Sooner and not later - infections get worse , not better. Good luck.

You need a : Foot doctor. You may need an antibiotic, if you have an ingrown toenail it likely will have to be removed.
