An ingrown toenail is a condition in which the side or top of the toenail grows into the surrounding skin. An ingrown toenail without infection is simply a painful toenail edge, but with infection, it is essentially a foreign body lodged in the nail groove of the toe.

An ingrown toenail can arise on its own, from cutting the edges improperly, tight-fitting shoes or from trauma and fungal infections. Ingrown toenail pain ranges from dull to sharp depending upon the level of irritation and compression of the nail edge(s).
