Hi guys, I think my LO has got an ingrown toenail. I’m just wondering if anyone else has had this with their LO and how they helped it? It doesn’t seem to bother him if you touch it or put socks on. It’s just red & a bit swollen on the side of his big toe

Good morning! I had the same with my little boy, I asked about it whilst I was at the doctors about something else and she told me to put sudocream on them. I’ve done it for the last few weeks and the redness has completely gone. She did say if it didn’t take them down they can give you antibiotics to clear them up. I hope this helps xx

Oh amazing! Thank you so much. I will give that a go 🫶🏼 xx

My little one had this! We went to the doctors and weirdly they prescribed an eye ointment? But it worked lol! And when he had his baths I just held his foot in the water! Xx

Also daily baths, or twice daily baths. My boy has this problem constantly. We are currently on antibiotics as it’s infected. We’ve also had hospital admissions and each time they have said daily soaks which deffo helps as it loosens the skin x
