Baby's nails and skin are very delicate, but sometimes there may be some abnormal phenomena in the growth of their nails, such as nails growing into the flesh. This not only affects the appearance of the nails, but may also cause pain, redness, and suppuration. So, what should we do if a baby's nails grow into the flesh?
The little baby's nails have grown into the flesh, so they cannot be cut off randomly first. If they are cut off randomly, it is easy to get the innermost edge of the nails into the flesh, which not only causes pain but may also get stuck in the flesh, making it even more difficult to get them out. Parents should first soak their baby's feet in warm water, and after the feet become soft, it will be easier to cut them.
Parents can also insist on soaking their baby's feet, drying them dry after soaking, and then wiping them with a little cotton swab to keep their feet clean. However, parents should cut their nails in a quiet state of the baby, because if the baby moves around, collisions are inevitable. If parents find it difficult to handle it, they can go to the hospital to prevent harm to their baby's nails.
Baby's nails growing into the flesh may be caused by accidentally trimming the two corners too short during nail trimming, or it may be related to the socks and shoes worn by the baby. The baby's feet are relatively small, and if the shoes or socks are too tight, it is easy to squeeze the soft tissue of the toes towards the nails, causing them to grow into the flesh.
