My toe hurts when i stand on it and it's sort of swollen with some green near the corner. i am 100% sure it's an ingrown nail. home treatment or doc?

Toe pain: Please don't self-diagnose. Green is not good. Please see a foot doctor or go to your primary care doc for a referral. You need to avoid infection, or spread thereof. Peace and good health.
