Ingrown finger nails, every one of them. i don't bite & do manicure. what is the cause & what kind of dr do i need to see?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
FootAndHandDisease: You say you"do"manicure.Meaning you are a manicurist or you get your nails done?If the latter, maybe consider the chemicals you are using. If the former,maybe consider the chemicals they are using. Or how short the nails are cut. As for to whom to go, I'd call a podiatrist(foot doctor)and see if they were comfortable looking at your nails.Same basic principles for foot & hand nails.
