What is wrong with my toe??

[Dimples04]

It is extremely sore. The bruise looking place on the nail wasn't there earlier & it just started hurting a couple hours ago. I've soaked it in Epsom salt but it hasn't helped. Suggestions??

Did you hit it?

[Dimples04]

Not that I recall.

Maybe your nail is growing crooked. I know my aunts did and it hurt all of a sudden, she had to get it removed eventually

[RheaF]

 IDK? Try some ice on it.

Idk but it is throbbing & pain is going through my whole foot.

Yuck, I'm sorry. I'm no Dr, so I'm just saying what happened with my aunt. Ice it?

Did you recently have a pedicure? 'Cause a lot of times the way they clip my nails causes me to get in grown nails. Put a small piece of cotton underneath the corners to raise the nail up until the pain goes away.

Fungus infection from nail shop... And it's all of a sudden flared up?

[Dimples04]

Pedicure was over a month ago. The pain was sudden & it pretty intense. It seems crazy that something that seems so insignificant could hurt so bad.
