Does this sound like the beginning of an ingrown toenail?

One of my toes (the littlest one) has been tingly since the beginning of the day. When I put my weight on it, it still feels tingly, but a little moreso than when no weight is on it. My toe looks normal mostly, but is a little red on 1 side.





Is this an ingrown toenail and if so, how should I go about making it better (preferably without a doctor)?Does this sound like the beginning of an ingrown toenail?
it pretty much soundsl like you might be developing an ingrown toenail. Dont let it progress! If you let it get worse, it will hurt so much more, and even worse when you try diggin it out. I would suggest you look at it closely, if the corner where it is red seems to be swelling up, look and see if the toenail is starting to grow underneath the skin. You can push the skin aside and see that way. If it is, take a toenail clipper and clip the very end up it..like, clip the whole tip off. Also, to prevent the hang nail from coming back, you could cut a v-shape at the top of your toenail so that it wont grow back into your skin. Like i said, its very important that you dont like it get worse! Good luck :)
