What will happen if you leave an ingrown toe for like almost over year?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Toe nail: Ingrown toenails usually hurt. get swollen and inflamed. This leads to an infection that demands attention-minor surgery. It is unusual to exist this long without a complication. Either you are fortunate or you do not have a true ingrown toenail digging into your skin.
