Hi,

First of all, if there is a big nail around cut that.

2nd give your feet rest and time to relax by avoiding using tight shoes.

3rd Use antiseptic cream on the area.

But you need to take rest for 5 to 7 days for its complete recovery otherwise it will remain as such.

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

Regards,
Dr. SOHEEL HUSSAIN ZARGAR,
