MYTH: Cutting a “V” in your toenail can fix an ingrown nail.
FACT: The nail grows from the base, so cutting the center won’t change how the edges grow and may make things worse.

So, what should you do?

Instead, trim toenails straight across and avoid digging into the corners. If an ingrown nail is painful, keeps coming back, or shows signs of infection, we're here to help! Visit us online for an appointment today! 👉https://appointments.balancehealth.com/?locationid=2146
