Ingrown Toenail Symptoms

« Back to Glossary Index

Ingrown toenail symptoms are common in toe nail conditions. An ingrown toenail occurs when the edge or corner of a toenail grows into the surrounding skin. This can cause pain, swelling, redness, and tenderness around the affected area. In some cases, there may be an infection, which can cause additional symptoms such as pus or drainage, increased pain, and a foul odor. Ingrown toenail symptoms can vary in severity, with mild cases causing minor discomfort and more severe cases causing significant pain and difficulty walking.
