How do I treat an ingrown toenail?
<|assistant|>
An ingrown toenail is typically treated by soaking the toe in a warm water bath, by applying a file or other sharp object to the sides of the nail to reduce the ingrown portion, by applying a soft cloth covering of gauze, or by a process called fungalization, which is removing the ingrown portion of the nail with a chemical or medicated dressing. If pain, redness, or swelling occurs near the nail, antibiotics or surgical removal of the portion of the nail may be necessary.
