I've been having a lot of pain in my toenails, especially around the edges where they're swollen. It really hurts whenever I touch them. Could you tell me what might be going on and what I could do to treat it?

Question

I'm using Salactin paint for the corn on my foot, but it's not helping much. There's still some pus and pain. What's going on, and what should I do next?

I've been dealing with a weird situation where my left toenail has turned kinda yellowish and bluish, and it's been really painful. There's this sticky yellow liquid that keeps coming out too. It all began after someone accidentally stomped on my foot. What could be going on with my toenail? Should I be worried about it?

Question

How can I handle an ingrown toenail that's deep in the basecutical area? I've always struggled with ingrown toenails, and I'm getting ready for camp and want to avoid dealing with it there. I attempted cutting the side out but just couldn't do it completely, and now it's worse. I've also soaked it in Epsom salts three times. Any advice on what else I can do?
