Suggest Remedies For Red And Sore Area Around The Bottom Of Big Toenail

My big toenail stopped growing, and there was redness and soreness around the bottom of the toe. There is slight discoloration of the nail - yellow color. I m now applying tea tree oil and taking Biotin supplements. Podiatrist was not sure if it was fungus and gave me a prescription, but I chose the natural route instead. This all started when I was under a lot of stress.

Hello,

Dermatologic conditions are hard to discuss without seeing them. BUT this is the usual situation with an ingrown or infected toenail that requires treatment to fix.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Matt Wachsman, Addiction Medicine Specialist
