Toenails
I think I may have a ingrown toenail...
1. The edge of my big toe curves under itself and is buied somewhere in my skin.
2. When I walk for a long time I can feel it digging in
3. But it is perfectly healthy toenail
Should I be doing something?

Sounds like it. I had one a month ago. And if you get just the sides cut, you cannot even tell you ever had it fixed. It helped a lot. Best wishes!

It sure sounds like you have an ingrown toenail.
Healthy or not its making trouble! Even if you could dig the edges out & get them trimmed, they usually grow back & cause trouble again.
What you should really do is make an appointment with your doctor. He/she will probably remove it for you. No more pain! They do get VERY painful if left untreated & could get infected over time. So, check with your doctor. If you have caught it soon enough they may be able to do something other than removal.
