Ingrown toenails are, of course, a common podiatric problem treated among children of all ages, and young people often learn the hard way how critically important foot care and footwear is. Not only can proper shoe fit sometimes prevent calluses or corns caused by foot and shoe friction, but it also can discourage an ingrown toenail, which involves one or both corners or sides of the nail curving and growing into the flesh.
