1. My elder sister once pulled out her toenails, but it remained the same after growing them. It didn't work, but she suffered in vain.
My brother's doctor operated on him. He cut off a few pieces on both sides of his toenail, and the whole toenail became narrow. Then he put a laser gun into the root of his toenail and burned the tissue, which never recovered. If you burn less, you will grow; Burning too much will affect adjacent tissues, and the toenails will be deformed and unsightly.
3. mine. I didn't feel pain when I was a child, but I often played ball after I went to college, which increased the pressure on my big toe. Maybe at that time, my toenails began to harden and widen, and the inside of my big toe often felt pain, and then I would cut it with small scissors. But digging deeper and deeper. Later, I got used to it and cut it every week. If I cut less, the back will be more painful, because the meat at the front end has been deeply squeezed by my toenails. Once I lose the support of my original toenail, I will recover and stand in front of my toenail. When toenails grow slowly, they don't press the front tissue from the surface to the inner layer, but apply pressure to the outside like a bulldozer and' cut' the front wrapped tissue like a knife. During the process, it was observed that the two big toes have four sides, one side will hurt for a while, and the other side will hurt for a while. On the other hand, if you remove the white cuticle, but don't cut off some toenails at the same time, walking will hurt; In a few days, the toenails will slowly grow out and the skin will break and fester; Either cut it short immediately (which will lead to deeper digging), or endure until the toenails grow, and then there will be a white cuticle. When I feel uncomfortable, I will dig over and over again, and I have been tortured for nearly 10 years. This year, I gradually understood a truth, so I tried to restrain my psychological problem of cutting cuticle and toenails, and I stayed longer, because the toenails were cut too short last time, and they were inserted into the meat like a knife, purulent and slowly stuttered and hardened. I always ignore it. Now, there is a thick stratum corneum between my toenails and my skin, and the tissue around my toenails has formed a depression to adapt to the external environment. Now it won't hurt to walk and play ball with your hands. My toenails are too long, so I cut them short from the front and never from the side. I can clean the dirt under my toenails, but don't remove the white cuticle. The stratum corneum is a spontaneous product of human skin to protect skin from the external environment (note: this is an unorthodox explanation). If it is removed, the skin will become thin, broken and unprotected, and then it will go through the adaptation process again and regenerate the stratum corneum.
Note: suppuration should be treated to prevent infection. My system is not easy to be infected, so I just squeeze the pus out (so that the pain will be relieved immediately), and then the epidermis will be necrotic, harden and become a white cuticle. It is best to let the toenails grow in winter, and the wound is not easy to heal in summer (this is also personal experience).
My father's toenails are deep, too, but I don't think he has ever cut them with scissors or heard him say that they hurt.
Conclusion: Don't trim your toenails from the side, and don't deliberately remove the white cuticle. Let the tissues around toenails adapt to the existence of toenails, and let the cuticle separate the skin from toenails to protect the skin. Long pain is better than short pain.
All the above are my personal experiences, some of which may be unreasonable, but they are all the results of observation. For reference only.
