Are you suffering from a painful ingrown nail? The best treatment that you can do is see your Podiatrist right away. NEVER use over the counter products as this can make your nail more infected and painful. Early treatment that one can do is soak the toe that is painful in warm water with Epsom Salt ( 1 tbs. Epsom salt to 1 quart of warm water) for 15 minutes. After this apply an antiobiotic cream such as Polysporin with a bandaid. Typically the earlier you seek treatment for this painful condition the easier it may be to remove the offending nail border and not have to be on oral antibiotics. A lot of times people will get immediate relief once the corner of the nail is removed.
