For some clients I actually push cotton in to allow a wedge between the skin and the nail so that it doesn't hurt them as much this seems to work for about 50 percent of the clients in the way of relief...I get them too and have found that as long as I leave them alone and don't mess with them keeping them longer then normal they don't bother me as much.

Many techs as a regular practice cut the corners deep \_/ buttthat's not always the answer.. I have tried several different methods and the only one that brought merelief was to allow the nails to grow out just past the edge - yes I getcomments all the time.. got them puppies a little long doncha?? Well -they are not THAT long :) Also I have been doing hard gel or acrylic onthe offending digits for months now and I am starting to see some changein the shape and the degree of "dooming/pinching". On hubby I have asked again to allow me to let them grow out past theedge.. he really doesnt want to start the podiatrist visits, so he let medo this.. I clip just the sharp corner so it doesn't poke him and hehasn;t whined about his toes in a while now .. BUT these methods dont work for everyone.. some find the deep cuts - andWE have to be VERY carful doing that - offer relief, some find it makesthings worse. There even has been discussion about constant deep cutting the corners iscreating ingrowns.. so watch what you are doing there! Your best bet is to align yourself with a local podiatrist and refer themover there. Debbie At 06:10 PM 2/10/2011, you wrote: How many of you remove ingrowntoenails?
