Cutting straight my toe nail after soak in a basin to prevent ingrown toenails.
Preventing ingrown toenails
Of course, it’s best to prevent getting ingrown nails in the first place. Experts Dr. Stock and Dr. Botek offer these suggestions:
Avoid cutting nails too short and cutting unevenly at the corners. Cut straight across.
Make sure your socks and shoes fit properly. You should be able to wiggle your toes easily in your shoes.
Avoid trauma to the toe area. If you run, play soccer or participate in other sports where your toes get a lot of action, try to go barefoot for an hour or two afterward.
