Question

I have a big toe that is red and swollen and when pressure is applied on the front right corner it really hurts. I got a partial toenail removal like a month ago and my nail just started growing. Is this normal because it’s pushing skins down as it grows out or do I need to get it looked at again?

Answer 1

I would definitely get it looked at it again. All of these side effects are signs of possible infection. Most likely staff infection which can be treated with antibiotics. It could also be an ingrown toenail which isn’t too serious. I would still recommend getting it looked at again. Hope this helps :)
