Yesterday one side of my big toe, next to the side of the nail, was red and felt sore. This has happened to me before. The first time was a year ago, then reoccurred every 6 months or so.
However this morning a fair amount of runny pus came out from the side of the nail bed! 😷This has never happened to me before. How can I treat this/stop it from reoccurring - what is causing this to happen?
I get my toe nails painted at the salon, but the last time was 5 weeks ago. I haven’t used any new footwear - could it be nasties residing in old footwear? I don’t think my nails are ingrown. I have spent a lot of time travelling and being at different hotels recently so wonder its due to not having access to my usual facilities/toiletries/hygiene routine
