Not unusual...: This is not common, but not unusual either. It depends on what type of procedure was done to kill the nail growth cells. You may just need a healing promotion cream (like traumeel). Ask your doctor, it's probably a simple treatment plan.

Evaluation: The doctor will evaluate your toe and try to find the reason for you problem and will try to alleviate your pain.

He will fix it: Sometimes a more definitive procedure is necessary when an ingrown returns. Don't worry, in the end you will feel better
