Therefore, when the toenail grows out, it will extend into the soft tissue. 2. Wear inappropriate shoes. Inappropriate shoes, such as pointed leather shoes, are too narrow in front, which will squeeze the soft tissue of toes over time and form ingrown toenails. This is the most common cause of paronychia. 3. The toe was injured. Due to kicking, collision, smashing, etc. The toe is damaged and the nail bed or nail will be deformed. /span
