If you are experiencing an ingrown toenail and are unable to see any nail penetrating the skin, it is possible that the nail is growing underneath the skin. In this case, it is recommended to soak your foot in warm water with Epsom salt and apply an antibiotic ointment to prevent infection. Avoid trying to manipulate or remove the nail yourself, as this could worsen the situation. If the problem persists or worsens, it may be necessary to seek treatment from a podiatrist who can provide more effective long-term solutions.
