What should be done in daily life to prevent ingrown toenails?

Today, let's talk about how to prevent ingrown toenails in daily life.

When many people hear the word paronychia, they all have an idea. They hate it, because once a person with paronychia feels pain when walking, it may make people unable to move, but people who have not changed paronychia do not know what paronychia is.

In fact, paronychia is a small stab wound on the skin around the nail, or the nail is improperly trimmed or the barb is not handled in time. At this time, it may lead to fungal and bacterial infections, which will never lead to nail inflammation.

There are two kinds of paronychia, one is chronic paronychia and the other is acute paronychia. Chronic paronychia is caused by fungal infection, which often affects many nails. If the baby likes to eat fingers since childhood, it may be easy to get chronic paronychia, while acute paronychia is a symptom of acute paronychia caused by bacterial infection, which will make the skin around the nails localized, painful, red and swollen, and even make the skin around the nails prominent or even purulent in severe cases.

If you have paronychia, you must improve your treatment as soon as possible. Otherwise, if paronychia worsens, there will be abscess, and your nails may fall off or loosen. If the symptoms of paronychia are mild, you can apply iodine to the inflamed area, preferably 3 to 5 times a day, and you must pay attention to the cleanliness of the place where severe paronychia occurs.

If you want to prevent paronychia, you must wear shoes of the right size when wearing shoes, and never wear shoes with too small or too pointed toes. If the toes are too small, it will cause the feet to squeeze, and the feet will be airtight, which will easily lead to bacteria.

Another point to prevent paronychia is that when trimming nails, don't trim them too deep and don't deliberately cut them into an arc. They may look good after cutting, but when the nails on both sides grow back, they will grow into the meat. Besides, you must keep good hygiene habits.
