No more Ingrown: Toenails or any other nail! if you have had repeated ingrown nails, many times your family doc or podiatrist will remove a small sliver of toenail next to the side that has been repeatedly a problem. They will treat the nail bed with a chemical that should destroy the part of the nail bed that grows the nail--in that immediate area only. The rest of your nail will grow out normally w/o the bad!
