I'm pretty sure I have an ingrown toenail on the right side of my right big toe. It hurts whenever I press on it even gently, and pus came out of it a few times. I soaked it w/ epsom salt and put cotton under the corner of my nail and it still hurts! So can you skate w/ an ingrown toenail? I went to practice thursday and it felt fine but now it hurts like crazy. I don't want to irritate it but I have to practice for a competition and I can't drop out because I have an important role. Also should I go to the doctor or will they tell me to take a few days off of skating? And if I have to get it surgically removed, how many days will I have to take off? Please help, best answer gets 10 pts!!! :)
