–Soaking and Exfoliation: Soaking your feet in warm, soapy water can soften the corn. After soaking, use a pumice stone or foot file to gently remove the thickened skin. –Moisturizing: Apply foot cream or lotion to keep the skin soft and prevent further buildup.

Question

I've been dealing with this issue where I pulled an edge of my toenail, and it's been really painful and swollen ever since. I tried to fix it by cutting the corner of the nail that was digging into the skin, and I thought it was better. But the pain is still there, and it's been going on like this for about 23 weeks now. Could you give me some advice on what might be going on and how I can get some relief?
