i think i might have an in grown toenail and i hasnt healed for weeks. i constantly pour peroxide on it or whatever its called. It always forms a scab around the toenail area where it is poking at the skin. I dont know if i blood poisioning yet but if i do what would be the symptoms and today i was brushing my teeth and all of a sudden my crouch area and below my belly button is starting to get a sharp pain and hurts and can barely move.
Hello, Thank you for using Chat Doctor. I read your question and understood your concern. The ingrown toenail is from cutting it not properly but to short in the corners. You can use Betadine baths of the the 2 times a day by 15 minutes, you deep the toe in a Betadine small basin. After 1 week the soft tissue inflammation will be better and ready for the surgery to remove part of the nail. It is not a poisoning of the blood, and it is not related with belly button. I wish you quick recovery.
