You can pull out your nails when you have an ingrown nail. There are many causes of nail fungus infection, and ingrown nails are an important one. If the nail grows toward the nail groove, it can lead to damage to the nail groove, which can easily lead to bacterial infections, which can lead to nail fungus infection. Therefore, you can remove the nail that grows into the nail groove, which can eliminate the damage to the nail groove and help to relieve the inflammation. Nail removal is relatively simple and is usually performed under anesthesia with a nerve block at the root of the finger. After the nail is removed, the wound needs to be disinfected and dressed regularly until it heals. In addition to nail removal, anti-inflammatory treatment is also needed. Oral antibiotics can be taken, and anti-inflammatory ointments can be used at the same time, which can make the onychomycosis gradually subside. Commonly used antibiotics are mupirocin ointment, amoxicillin and so on. Drugs should be applied under the guidance of a doctor.
