I've been suffering from these weird shape toenails since I've been born. They don't grow flat like my big toenails, but they kinda look like claws. Now, when I cut them, they regrow back in all sorts of directions. I have two weird one s on my feet. One growing side ways and one growing as though it was pulled back. I hate this. I was never able to wear open toe shoes as I would like (my feet is soak and wet with sweat, which is another problem). Is it possible to try to get my toenails to grow normal or would I have to continue to shamefully hide my feet for the rest of my life.
