I have a horrible recurring problem of ingrown toenails. I'm constantly digging them out and clipping them, and going to the doctor for them. I had the problem before my accident and it's just gotten worse mostly if I wear too thick of socks, and even when I don't. I've dealt with it so long, I've found it entertaining that I can gross my mom out with it...
Anyone else have this problem with ingrown toenails?
Knight, I have the same problem, particularly on my left big toe, I visit the podiatrist every 6 weeks for a trim, he blames my shoes. By the way Lαrα my podiatrist comes from Blackpool
DJ, I wear my shoes 6-12 hours a day, unless I stay home. My shoes don't give any pressure so I'm not sure exactly what's causing my problem.
Oh really eh? How much sensation do you have in your toes? Do you think your blanket at night pulls up on them? Mine does sometimes so I make sure I readjust the blanket and give some slack.
I have no sensation in my toes, DJ. Maybe my blanket is the culprit.
Ok I see, my toes are hypersensitive and I hate it when my toes get bumped on anything or if the blanket is tugging on them! Also, do you think your toes curl up in your shoes?

My toes curl all the time they're not in shoes, so I'm sure they do curl in my shoes.

Oh in that case that could be the reason for the ingrown toe nails! I remember being told at rehab that the number one reason for ingrown toenails are due to curled toes inside a shoe. Do you think you can take your shoes off any time during the day?

if it wasn't below zero, I would take them off more often.
