The most common symptom of an ingrown toenail is pain, especially if the area becomes infected. The surrounding skin might be deep pink and release a discharge or pus, or it might appear raw with a red moist lump overlapping the nail edge.
Ingrown Toenails Overview. An ingrown toenail, also known as onychocryptosis or unguis incarnatus, is a painful condition of the toe. It occurs when a sharp corner of the toenail digs into the skin at the end of or side of the toe. Pain and inflammation at the spot where the nail curls into the skin occurs first. Later, the inflamed area can begin to grow extra tissue or drain yellowish fluid. 1  If left untreated, an ingrown toenail can progress to an infection or even an abscess that requires surgical treatment. 2  Osteomyelitis is a rare complication of an infected toe, in which the bone itself becomes infected.
