Got paronychia, two big feet and thumbs, both with severe ingrown nails, and the side of nails got stuck in the meat, bleeding and purulent; Ask good people in Beijing for help.

Both the big foot and thumb have severe paronychia, and the side of the nail is stuck in the meat, with bleeding and suppuration. First, apply fish fat cream to diminish inflammation, reduce swelling and expel pus. Do the next step after the swelling is reduced: prevent repeated inflammation. I used to be a paronychia patient. I didn't go to the hospital, but I handled it myself. Repeated recurrence. Only later did I find a way to deal with it. What are the key issues? For toenails, the key lies in the nail squeezing nail groove. Inappropriate shoes and too narrow toes will lead to abnormal nail squeezing on the nail groove. If the nail is cut too short, the soft tissue will grow and occupy the position of the nail without the nail cover, and the soft tissue will be squeezed abnormally when the nail grows out. It is very important to wear the right shoes and trim the nail length properly (as long as possible, not short) so that the nail and nail groove can coexist peacefully. When the nail groove has hard skin, repair it (this is also very important). At present, if the nails are short, it will be smoother to temporarily polish the sharp corners on both sides of the nails. In other words:

This is a war of nails and nail grooves. Before the nails grow out, the soft tissue of nail groove has grown out, occupying the position that nails should occupy. When the nail is blocked, it can't stop moving forward, but it can only rush forward. First, smooth the sharp corners on both sides of the nail, which is called trimming. Then clean up the hard skin pressed out by the nails at the nail groove. It's called clearing roadblocks. If the nails are always long, clear the roadblocks until the nails are beyond the soft tissue. Nail and nail groove coexist peacefully, and nail groove will not recur.
